SUMMARY:Ph.D Seminar: Saibal De\, Applied and Interdisciplinary Mathematics & Scientific Computing
DESCRIPTION:Bio: Saibal De is a 5th year PhD candidate in Applied and Interdisciplinary Mathematics. His research involves using high-performance computing and novel algorithms for accelerating physics-based simulation frameworks\, and developing faithful reduced-order models of black-box high-fidelity simulations. \nTENSOR METHODS FOR DATA COMPRESSION: With the advancement of computing software and hardware\, physics-based simulations have gained notoriety in many scientific and industrial applications due to their highly accurate prediction capabilities. However\, in addition to being computationally expensive\, even a single of these high-fidelity simulations produce massive amounts of data. Storing and processing all these data thus requires novel approaches. In this talk\, I will present how we can use tensor factorization methods for compressing scientific data\, leading to dramatic savings in disk-space usage. Towards the end of the talk\, I’ll also touch upon how we can potentially construct reduced-order models out of these compressed datasets. \n\nThis event is part of MICDE’s Winter 2021 seminar series featuring Ph.D. students in the Scientific Computing program. This series is open to all. University of Michigan faculty and students interested in computational and data sciences are encouraged to attend. \nQuestions? Email MICDE-events@umich.edu

SUMMARY:Ph.D Seminar: Matthew Duschenes & Yi Zhu
DESCRIPTION:MATTHEW DUSCHENES\, GRADUATE STUDENT\, APPLIED PHYSICS & SCIENTIFIC COMPUTING \nBio: I am in my third year of the Applied Physics & Scientific Computing Ph.D. programs\, after completing a master’s in theoretical physics in my home country of Canada. As a member of Dr. Krishna Garikipati’s Computational Physics group\, I am currently working on data driven modelling and am collaborating with several groups on applying these graph theoretic approaches to various systems of interest. \nGRAPH THEORETIC APPROACHES FOR PHYSICAL SYSTEMS: Numerical analyses of physical systems are conventionally performed using direct numerical simulations\, that have proven highly successful\, yielding high fidelity solutions to very high dimensional problems\, such as boundary value problems with upwards of tens of millions of degrees of freedom. However\, there is always a balance to be met between the desire for higher accuracy and additional physics to be modeled\, and the complexity\, interpret-ability and ease of representation of such solutions. To aid in this dilemma\, I will be introducing a novel graph theoretic approach\, allowing for lower dimensional\, reduced order models to be produced\, given small amounts of high fidelity data. In this talk I will explain how such an approach allows for an intuitive representation of the states of a systems\, and how it is possible to use a non-local calculus\, allowing for rigorous operators and equations to be defined on the graph. I will then be discussing some implementation details\, and convey the generality\, validity\, and future applications of this framework through some example results from collaborations. \nYI ZHU\, GRADUATE STUDENT\, CIVIL AND ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERING & SCIENTIFIC COMPUTING \nBio: Yi is a 3rd year PhD candidate in Civil and Environmental Engineering & Scientific Computation. His research focuses on simulation\, design\, and fabrication of active origami systems for engineering devices\, and is particularly focused on micro-scale shape morphing systems inspired by origami. \nSIMULATION AND DESIGN OF MICRO-ORIGAMI SYSTEMS: In this talk\, we will introduce some recent advancement in the simulation and the design of micro-origami systems. We will discuss the micro-origami structures we fabricated and the rapid simulation framework we developed to capture the behaviors of these active origami. We will focus on the simulation framework and demonstrate how we can capture the thermo-mechanically coupled folding behavior and contacts between origami panels effectively and rapidly. Finally\, we will introduce some ongoing work on extracting origami design principle with interpretable machine learning\, which demonstrates how we can use the simulation framework to create better origami design. \n\nThis event is part of MICDE’s Winter 2021 seminar series featuring Ph.D. students in the Scientific Computing program. This series is open to all. University of Michigan faculty and students interested in computational and data sciences are encouraged to attend. \nQuestions? Email MICDE-events@umich.edu

SUMMARY:Ph.D. Seminar: Anil Yildirim & Jiale Tan
DESCRIPTION:ANIL YILDIRIM\, GRADUATE STUDENT\, AEROSPACE ENGINEERING & SCIENTIFIC COMPUTING \nBio: Anil Yildirim is a PhD candidate in Aerospace Engineering and Scientific Computing. His research focuses on the development and application of robust computational tools in the context of multidisciplinary design optimization for aircraft configurations. \nROBUST AND HIGH-PERFORMANCE TOOLS FOR MULTIDISCIPLINARY DESIGN OPTIMIZATION: The development of future sustainable aircraft heavily relies on the design and integration of advanced propulsion systems. However\, the design of these systems are challenging due to the tightly coupled interactions between the aerodynamic and the propulsion disciplines. My research focuses on enabling these advanced technologies using aeropropulsive design optimization\, in which the aerodynamic and propulsion system designs are optimized in a coupled manner. In this process\, I use multiple robust and high-performance computational tools including the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) solver we have been developing in the MDO Lab at the University of Michigan. In this talk\, I will cover some recent advancements in the field of CFD-based aeropropulsive design optimization and the computational methodologies we have been using for this work. \n  \nJIALE TAN\, GRADUATE STUDENT\, EPIDEMIOLOGY & SCIENTIFIC COMPUTING \nBio: Jiale is a second year Phd student working with Prof. Rafael Meza in Epidemiology. His interest is to apply computational skills to public health challenges so that he can develop and apply modeling techniques for infectious and noninfectious diseases\, including for viral infections like HIV and HCV\, and eventually use them for modeling non-communicable diseases that disproportionately affect global health like cancer. \nMARKOV MULTISTATE TRANSITION MODEL ON ELECTRONIC NICOTINE DELIVERY SYSTEMS AND TRADITIONAL CIGARETTES: Electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS) have dramatically changed the landscape of tobacco products patterns in the USA since 2011. The impact of ENDS use on traditional cigarettes smoking remains a topic of considerable debate. A Markov multistate transition model was used to estimate transition rates (Hazard rate) between ENDS and cigarette use states (25 use states); never user\, non-current experimental user\, non-current regular user\, current experimental user\, and current regular user for each product. A 25×25 transition matrix was generated from this model. Parallel computations using 150 processors was used to estimate the transition rates. The Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health study\, which includes longitudinal data from 11\,475 youth of ages 12 to 24 years from 2013-2018 was used to calibrate the model. The hazard estimates show the patterns of ENDS and cigarette use experimentation and transition to regular use. Next steps will assess the impact of different sociodemographic covariates (age\, sex\, race\, education\, household income) on the estimated transition rates. \n\nThis event is part of MICDE’s Winter 2021 seminar series featuring Ph.D. students in the Scientific Computing program. This series is open to all. University of Michigan faculty and students interested in computational and data sciences are encouraged to attend. \nThis webinar was not recorded for public distribution. \nQuestions?
