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

SUMMARY:National TRIO Day
DESCRIPTION:In honor of National TRIO Day\, TRIO Student Support Services is hosting a celebration event next Wednesday March 6\, 2019.  Leading up to and at the event we will be collecting non-perishable food items to donate to the WSUTC Cougar Cupboard.  In addition\, our students have been signing up for local volunteer opportunities such as tutoring support at the Family Learning Center\, providing workshops at the Kids Engineering Day at Jeffereson Elementary\, and offering mentorship for the Dream It\, Be It conference. \n  \nOverview of National TRIO Day: \n\nOn February 24\, 1986\, a congressional resolution (H. Con. Res. 278) declared that Saturday\, February 28\, 1986\, should be designated as “National TRIO Day” to commemorate the annual achievements of the Federal TRIO programs in communities across the country.\nEvery year since then\, our community has reserved the fourth Saturday in February as National TRIO Day — an opportunity to focus the nation’s “attention on the needs of disadvantaged young people and adults aspiring to improve their lives if they are to become contributing citizens of the country\, and to the talent which will be wasted if that investment is not made.”\nFor many programs\, National TRIO Day has become a tradition as it allows students who benefit from the TRIO programs and to give back to their local communities through acts of service.\n\n  \nPlease join us next week\, and bring a non-perishable food item\, in the Atrium beginning at 11:00 am as TRIO Student Support Services celebrates National TRIO Day.  There will be guest speakers from PNNL\, activities hosted by our students\, and light appetizers.   \n

SUMMARY:Campus lecture and discussion - Expert Women Explore The Heavy Burden Of Hanford Cleanup
DESCRIPTION: In celebration of Women’s History Month\, the Northwest News Network’s Anna King will present her award-winning public radio project Daughters of Hanford at WSU Tri-Cities. \nAfterwards\, King will moderate a panel discussion with three of those featured expert women. The event starts at 5 p.m.\, March 21\, in WSU Tri-Cities’ East Auditorium. \n“These women have intense experiences\, great depth of knowledge and funny stories to share about Hanford\,” says Anna King\, who also appears on WSU’s Northwest Public Broadcasting. “Hanford is a heavy burden that we all inherit and these women’s wisdom is invaluable.” \nWSU Tri-Cities\, WSU WiSTEM and the Women Chemist Committee of the American Chemical Society\, Richland Section\, are presenting the entertaining program together. \nDaughters is oral histories\, portraits and personal archives of women who changed the World War II plutonium production site\, and women who were changed by it. The evening’s panel discussion will feature three Daughters of Hanford: retired Washington State Ecology geologist Zelma Maine Jackson\, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory’s Frannie Smith and retired head of Washington State Ecology’s Hanford program\, Jane Hedges. \n“Women’s contributions to the Hanford site and the Manhattan Project sites across the country\, but especially at Hanford\, are unknown\,” says Zelma Maine Jackson. “When you think of the nuclear industry you think of men\, you never think of women. But more than likely they performed 90 percent of the hard work — the laborious\, tedious\, number crunching\, dictating a letter\, making a policy come into effect — it’s always been the mental heavy load carried by women.” \nDaughters of Hanford was created in partnership with WSU Tri-Cities\, The REACH\, and Northwest Public Broadcasting. Daughters is a series\, a museum installation and a radio documentary. Daughters was awarded the Washington State Historical Society’s David Douglas award. \n“This won’t be a stiff lecture\, or a glum chat\,” King says about the upcoming event at WSU Tri-Cities. “Bring a young woman or girl and grab a seat for this entertaining evening full of dynamic sound\, surprising Northwest stories\, poignant moments and laughter.” \nDaughters gets its name from nuclear science. “Daughter products” are isotopes formed by radioactive decay of some other isotope. Daughters collaborators include: WSU Tri-Cities’s associate professor of fine arts Doug Gast\, Seattle-based photographer Kai-Huei Yau\, and newly-minted APM podcast editor Phyllis Fletcher. You can listen to the audio stories and explore the full project and photography at daughtersofhanford.org.
