SUMMARY:CE Seminar Series - Uncertainty quantification and reduction with conditional Gaussian process models in high dimensional stochastic systems
DESCRIPTION:Ramakrishna Tipireddy\, Ph.D.\nResearch Scientist in the Physical and Computational Sciences Directorate \nPacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) \n  \nAbstract\nThis talk will present a brief introduction to uncertainty quantification (UQ) quantification methods for\nhigh dimensional stochastic PDEs and introduce conditional Gaussian process (GP) models for uncertainty\nreduction. The PDE coefficient is represented as a log-normal random field\, with the corresponding\nGaussian part modeled as a zero-mean Gaussian process (GP) with appropriate covariance function. The\nreduction in uncertainty is achieved by conditioning the GP model on observations of the coefficient at a\nfew spatial locations. The resulting conditional GP model is then discretized using truncated Karhunen-\nLo`eve (KL) expansion and the stochastic solution of the PDE is computed using Monte Carlo and sparsegrid\ncollocation methods. Finally\, uncertainty in the system is further reduced by adaptively selecting\nadditional observation locations using two active learning criteria. The first criteria minimizes the\nvariance of the PDE coefficient\, while the second criteria employs approximately minimizes the variance\nof the solution of the PDE.\nBio\nThis talk will present a brief introduction to uncertainty quantification (UQ) quantification methods for\nhigh dimensional stochastic PDEs and introduce conditional Gaussian process (GP) models for uncertainty\nreduction.

SUMMARY:Professional Learning Opportunity - Culturally Relevant Teaching
DESCRIPTION:Participants in this session will engage in critical conversations involving gender\, class ethnicity\, and sexual orientation\, and will experience the positive and negative effects that teacher expectations\, privilege\, and stereotyping can have on student achievement. Participants will be encouraged to reflect on their own classroom management and teaching style and will apply their knowledge by creating culturally relevant classrooms and infusing lesson plans with culturally relevant teaching strategies.

SUMMARY:MME Seminar Series - Vortex-Breakdown and Wall-Separation States in Swirling Flows in Finite-Length Pipes
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\nThe dynamics of inviscid-limit\, incompressible and axisymmetric swirling flows in finite-length\, long circular pipes\nwith varying geometries is studied through global analysis techniques and numerical simulations. The inlet flow is\ndescribed by fixed-in-time profiles of the circumferential and axial velocity together with a fixed azimuthal vorticity\,\nwhile the outlet flow is characterized by a state with zero radial velocity. A numerical algorithm based on the upwind\nfinite-difference method for the evolution of the circulation and azimuthal vorticity together with a Poisson solver for\nthe solution of the stream function in terms of the azimuthal vorticity is developed. The convergence of computed\nresults with mesh refinement is demonstrated. Moreover\, a mathematical analysis that is based on the Squire-Long\nequation (SLE) is formulated to identify steady-state solutions of the problem with special conditions to describe\nstates with separation zones. These solutions include the base columnar flow state\, a decelerated flow along the\ncenterline\, an accelerated flow along the centerline\, a vortex-breakdown state and a wall-separation state. The\nproblem is then reduced to the columnar (axially independent) SLE\, with centerline and wall conditions for the\nsolution of the outlet flow stream function. The numerical simulations realize the various flow states and show\ncorrelation between time-asymptotic states and steady states predicted according to the SLE and the columnar\nSLE problems. The simulations also shed light on the stability of the various steady states. Results show that pipe\ndivergence promotes the appearance of breakdown states at lower inlet swirl levels while pipe contraction delays\nthe appearance of vortex breakdown to higher swirl levels and promotes formation of wall-separation states. The\ninfluence of various inlet swirling flow profiles on the manifold of steady states in a straight\, finite-length pipe and\non flow dynamics is also investigated. Depending on the inlet profiles\, flows may first exhibit vortex breakdown while\nothers wall-separation states. \nMME Seminar_Flyer_Zhang_02.22.2019

SUMMARY:MME Seminar Series: The Dynamics and Thermodynamics of Gas Dynamic Shock Waves
DESCRIPTION:This seminar presents a computational investigation of shock-wave structures through a novel\nimplicit high-order Galerkin finite element Runge–Kutta algorithm. The algorithm induces no spatial\ndiscretization artificial diffusion\, relies on cubic and higher-degree elements for an accurate resolution\nof the steep shock gradients\, uses an implicit time integration for swift convergence to steady states\,\nand employs original Neumann-type outlet boundary conditions in the form of generalized Rankine\nHugoniot conditions on normal stress and balance of heat flux and deviatoric-stress work per unit time.\nThrough an innovative approach\, the formulation also calculates the shock extent\, which is an additional\nunknown\, and employs the single non dimensional (0\, 1) computational domain for the determination\nof any shock structure. The algorithm rapidly generates steady shock structures\, in at most 150 time\nsteps for any upstream Mach number considered in this study\, in the range 1.05 < M < 10.0. The finite\nelement discretization is shown to be asymptotically convergent under progressive grid refinements\, in\nrespect of both the H0 and H1 error norms\, with an H0 accuracy order as high as 6 and reduction of the\ndiscretization error to the round-off-error threshold of 1 x10-9 with just 420 computational cells and\n5th-degree elements. For any upstream Mach number\, the computational results are shown to satisfy the\nRankine–Hugoniot conditions\, an established requirement for solution reliability. \nMME Seminar_Flyer_Iannelli_03.01.2019 \n

Philippe Hyojung Kim (b. 1989) often experiments with various materials and mediums in response to his immediate surroundings to create poured paint-made objects that exist in the space between painting and sculpture. His work references queer identity\, artificiality\, and language while refraining from traditional figurative representation. Philippe is a current member of SOIL Artist-Run Gallery and a co-founder/curator of Specialist\, an experimental art space in downtown Seattle. Philippe received his MFA in Painting from Central Washington University\, and he currently lives and works in Seattle with his husband\, Drew\, and their dog\, Jack. \nPhilippe will be in residence with the GHCC from September 3-13\, 2019 and will be hosting a lecture and artist talk (free + open to the public) Tuesday\, September 10 @ 10:30am – 12:00pm @ Washington State University TC\, TEST 266 (East Auditorium). \n+ Please join us on September 10 @ 10:30am for Philippe’s lecture and extend this invitation to your friends\, family\, and colleagues. + \nGHCC Resident:Philippe Hyojung Kim \nResidency Period: September 3 -13\, 2019 \nOpen Office/Studio Hours: Times + Location TBD \nPublic Lecture: Tuesday\, September 10 @ 10:30am – 12:00pm @ Washington State University TC\, TEST 266 (East Auditorium) \nPublic Art Workshop Event: September 2019\, Date + Location TBD \nThe Guest House Cultural Capital Residency (GHCCRes) is a visiting scholar residency program in Richland\, WA. The GHCCRes seeks to serve as a forum for discourse and creativity for all communities in WA\, particularly seeking input from marginalized\, underrepresented and/or disenfranchised groups\, especially in rural and suburban areas in central and eastern Washington. GHCC programs have been supported with grants from the Washington State Arts Commission\, Humanities Washington\, & the Common Field Network. For more information on GHCC facilitated programs\, please contact GHCCRes Director Peter Christenson. \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:Day's Pay Lecture
DESCRIPTION:On July 23\, 1944\, Hanford Engineer Works employees each gave a day’s worth of their pay to purchase a B-17 Bomber for the war effort. This bomber\, named “Day’s Pay”\, was used during WWII over the skies of Europe. Descendants of the Day’s Pay crew will be discussing the role of their parents in the war and the impact Hanford’s employees made on the war effort.
