Date of the Event: November 1, 2024
TIME: 3:30 PM LOCATION: GMCS 314 SPEAKER: Jared Brzenski, San Diego State University ABSTRACT: I will be presenting an implementation for solving Navier-Stokes equations using mimetic difference operators in building an ocean model. Mimetic operators can be constructed to high orders of accuracy and maintain the physical properties of the problems under consideration. I […]

TIME: 3:30 PM LOCATION: GMCS 314 SPEAKER: Dr. Anjana Pokharel, Tribhuvan University, Nepal ABSTRACT: Despite the availability of vaccines, measles continues to cause outbreaks worldwide. For example, in Nepal, even with the implementation of the National Immunization Program, measles remains a leading cause of child morbidity and mortality. Potential causes for frequent measles outbreaks hampering […]
