BSEL 103

Ramakrishna Tipireddy, Ph.D. Research Scientist in the Physical and Computational Sciences Directorate Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL)   Abstract This talk will present a brief introduction to uncertainty quantification (UQ) quantification methods for high dimensional stochastic PDEs and introduce conditional Gaussian process (GP) models for...

Professional Learning Opportunity – Culturally Relevant Teaching

CIC 120 2710 University Dr, Richland, United States

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...

MME Seminar Series – Vortex-Breakdown and Wall-Separation States in Swirling Flows in Finite-Length Pipes

BSEL 102

Abstract The dynamics of inviscid-limit, incompressible and axisymmetric swirling flows in finite-length, long circular pipes with varying geometries is studied through global analysis techniques and numerical simulations. The inlet flow is described by fixed-in-time profiles of the circumferential and axial velocity together with a fixed...

MME Seminar Series: The Dynamics and Thermodynamics of Gas Dynamic Shock Waves

BSEL 102

This seminar presents a computational investigation of shock-wave structures through a novel implicit high-order Galerkin finite element Runge–Kutta algorithm. The algorithm induces no spatial discretization artificial diffusion, relies on cubic and higher-degree elements for an accurate resolution of the steep shock gradients, uses an implicit...
