CIS Seminar: “Visualization for People + Systems”

Wu and Chen Auditorium (Room 101), Levine Hall 3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

Abstract: While computers can help us manage data, human judgment and domain expertise is what turns it into understanding. Meeting the challenges of increasingly large and complex data requires methods that richly integrate the capabilities of both people and machines. In response to these challenges, my research combines methods from visualization, data management, human-computer interaction, […]

CIS Seminar: “Perceiving Humans in the 3D World”

Wu and Chen Auditorium (Room 101), Levine Hall 3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

Since the dawn of civilization, we have functioned in a social environment where we spend our days interacting with other humans. As we approach a society where intelligent systems and humans coexist, these systems must also interpret and interact with humans that reside in the 3D world. While computer vision systems today work well for […]

PICS Seminar: “Coupled Multiphysics Models of Cardiac Hemodynamics: From Fundamental Insights to Clinical Translation”

Room 401B, 3401 Walnut 3401 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

  Abstract: The mammalian heart has been sculpted by millions of years of evolution into a flow pump par excellence. During the typical lifetime of a human, the heart will beat over three billion times and pump enough blood to fill over 60 Olympic-sized swimming pools. Each of these billions of cardiac cycles is itself a […]

PICS Seminar: “Impact of Non-Native Structures in Ionic Liquid-Ionic Liquid Mixtures on Phase Equilibria Properties of Gases”

Raisler Lounge (Room 225), Towne Building 220 South 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

Ionic liquids are substances that are composed entirely of ions. Negligible vapor pressures and the availability of a large number of cations and anions to tune physicochemical and biological properties for a given chemical process have been the primary drivers for research in this field over the last two decades. Majority of these investigations have […]

PICS Colloquium: Concurrent Atomistic-Continuum Modeling and Simulation of Transport Processes in Crystalline Materials

PICS Conference Room 534 - A Wing , 5th Floor 3401 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

Abstract: In this talk we present a concurrent atomistic-continuum (CAC) method for modeling and simulation of transport processes in crystalline materials. The CAC formulation extends the Irving-Kirkwood procedure for deriving transport equations and fluxes for homogenized molecular systems to that for polyatomic crystalline materials by employing a concurrent two- level structural description of crystals. A multiscale […]

ESE Seminar: “Foundations of Deep Learning and Applications in Medicine”

Wu and Chen Auditorium (Room 101), Levine Hall 3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

Abstract: Recent advances in machine learning, computer vision, natural language processing, and robotics, offer a tremendous opportunity to transform medicine, from reactive and hospital centered to proactive and patient-centered. To fulfill this promise, new methods need to be developed which are more interpretable, can handle data at multiple spatial and temporal scales, and are robust […]

PICS Seminar: Isogeometric Methods for Solids, Structures, and Fluid-Structure Interaction: From Early Results to Recent Developments

PICS Conference Room 534 - A Wing , 5th Floor 3401 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

Abstract: This presentation is focused on Isogeometric Analysis (IGA) with applications to solids and structures, starting with early developments and results, and transitioning to more recent work. Novel IGA-based thin-shell formulations are discussed, and applications to progressive damage modeling in composite laminates due to low-velocity impact and their residual-strength prediction are shown. Fluid--structure interaction (FSI) employing […]
