Description:: In many practical situations encountered in industries, there is incomplete knowledge of material properties, boundary conditions, and sources for a given material/manufacturing process. However, process monitors such as thermocouples are typically used to measure temperature evolution in certain locations to bridge the resulting gaps. Spatial g...

Description:: Many multiscale algorithms focus on the bulk. The rapid changes in composition and properties at interfaces between materials make them more challenging. The talk will address three strategies to incorporating interfacial behavior. The first section considers interfaces between a solid and a binary fluid mixture. Molecular simulations of binary ...

Description:: Can genomics provide a new level of strategic intelligence about rapidly evolving pathogens? We have developed a new approach to measure the rates of all possible evolutionary pathways in a genome, using conditional Ka/Ks to estimate their "evolutionary velocity", and have applied this to several datasets, including clinical sequencing of 50,000...
