The IMA, in collaboration with Mprime and PIMS, is holding a 10-day workshop on Mathematical Modeling in Industry in Calgary, Canada. The workshop is designed to provide graduate students and qualified advanced undergraduates with first hand...

The University of Calgary has been an international leader in developing experiments that involve imaging the aurora. At present, UofC has more than 50 instruments deployed across the Canadian Arctic. This network takes images and other measurements...

Humankind's fascination with the mathematical constant pi goes well beyond practical need. In fact, even though over five trillion decimal places of pi has been calculated, a mere four decimal places are sufficient for the design of the world's...

The electrophysiology in a cardiac cell can be modelled as a system of ordinary differential equations. The efficient solution of these systems is important because they must be solved billions of times as sub-problems of organ-level simulations. The...

In many applications, ranging from engineering to economics and applied mathematics, it is often desired to locate an extremum of a functional that captures the performance of the system. Typically, such an extremum has to be found subject to a set...

Palaeontology has traditionally focused on describing new fossils and determining the relationships and evolutionary history of extinct life forms. Sometimes, it even attempts to understand how the unusual animals of the past would have gone about...

Electrical Energy Systems are on the edge of a significant revolution in their operation and planning. Great interest is being directed towards increased integration of renewable or "clean" energy sources such as wind- and solar-based generation, and...
