Fluids with suspended microstructure – complex fluids – are common in micro- and biofluidics and can have fascinating dynamical behaviors. I will overview modeling and simulation studies of transport and mixing in complex fluids. These studies will...

Donaldson introduced a metric and a geometric structure on the space of volume forms on any compact Rimannian manifold. The geodesic equation is a degenerate fully nonlinear elliptic equation. Also this equation is relevant to many interesting...

"Fun" methods to teach math and computer science concepts to children (and adults!) by games and art will be demonstrated. Lots of hands-on activities! Exciting Geometrical Models from Straws and Paper Mathematical Puzzles The Guessing Game A Sorting...

Many fluid instabilities involving free surfaces are governed by interfacial forces - for instance surface tension. However, some materials have surface forces produced by active physical processes not present in the bulk fluid, such as forces due to...

Point singularities of very weak solutions of 3D stationary Navier-Stokes equations - Tai-Peng Tsai I will talk about a joint work with Hideyuki Miura, which characterizes the singularities of very weak solutions bounded by $C_*|x|^{-1}$ for $C_*$...
