Feeder. Boat-style white ceramic invalid feeder with embossed floral design between top opening and spout; spout is long, tapered, and straight; handle is in an C shape and has a flat thumb rest at the top. Feeders of this type were used both for feeding the sickly and infirm as well as for feeding infants.

I will discuss some recent progress concerning the distribution of quadratic Weyl sums. These sums are classical objects in number theory and also appear in quantum mechanics.Analogously to Donsker's theorem in probablity theory, the existence of limiting distribution for the interpolated partial sums (weak invariance principle) allows us to def...

Invariant manifolds and foliations have become very useful tools in dynamical systems. For infinite dimensional systems generated by evolutionary PDEs, the mere existence of these structures is non-trivial compared to those of ODEs due to issues such as the non-existence of backward (in time) solutions of some PDEs or nonlinear terms causing der...

We consider a product rental network with a fixed number of rental units distributed across multiple locations. The units are accessed by customers without prior reservation and on an on-demand basis. Customers are provided with the flexibility to decide on how long to keep a unit and where to return it. Because of the randomness in demand and i...

Fractures are common in real porous media and their transmissibilities can greatly effect flow patterns and hydrocarbonrecovery. Estimating these transmissibilities from limited data can be challenging. In this talk, we focus on a measure-theoretic inverse method used to determine the most likely values of transmissibilities based on data measur...

Inverse problems arise in all fields of science and technology, where information is obtained about an object from a set of observed measurements. Taking human vision as an example, our brains construct a detailed, 3-D map from measurements of scattered light that reach our retinas. Thus, solving inverse problems can reveal what is hidden. But c...

The aim of this talk is to introduce a direct method allowing to solve numerically inverse type problems for linear hyperbolic equations. We first consider the reconstruction of the full solution of the equation from a partial distributed observation. We employ a least-squares technique and minimize the norm of the distance from the observation ...

Predictive mathematical models normally follow the causal direction, forecasting consequences of known causes. The interpretation of measured data, on the other hand, moves in the opposite direction, looking for unknown causes of observed consequences. In practice, the interpretation of data entails solving an ill-posed inverse problem, The trad...

Acousto-optic tomography is a variation of this problem where the object is perturbed by an acoustic field, and optical boundary measurements are taken as the parameters of the acoustic field vary....
