MSE Seminar: “The Surface Dynamics of the Initial Stages of CU Oxidation”

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

Much is known about oxygen interaction with metal surfaces and about the macroscopic growth of thermodynamically stable oxides. At present, however, the transient stages of oxidation - from nucleation of the metal oxide to formation of the thermodynamically stable oxide - represent a scientifically challenging and technologically important terra incognito. These issues can only be […]

MSE Seminar: “Thermal Architecture”

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

Air conditioning accounts for nearly 20% of the total electricity used in buildings globally and cooling energy demand is predicted to significantly increase over the next decades due to urbanization, population growth, and global warming. Heat stress is a major environmental justice concern, disproportionally impacting disadvantaged communities. What are the paths to reduce the massive energy […]

MSE Seminar: “Probabilistic Digital Twins for Structure Preserving Simulation and Scientific Discovery”

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

Despite the recent flurry of work employing machine learning to develop surrogate models to accelerate scientific computation, the "black-box" underpinnings of current techniques fail to provide the verification and validation guarantees provided by modern finite element methods. In this talk we present a data-driven finite element exterior calculus for building accelerated reduced-order models of multiphysics […]
