Mathematical Sciences (21). A team of applied mathematics faculty is adapting various modules developed in the Analysis, Computation and Experiment (ACE) Laboratory in the Department of Mathematics at the Georgia Institute of Technology, and at the Modeling, Experiment, and Computation (MEC) Laboratory in the Department of Mathematical Sciences at the University of Delaware. The modules are being used in a senior capstone course to introduce the study of interfacial fluid dynamics and the dynamics of self-assembly, both of which are of current research interest and have industrial applications. The intellectual merit of this activity lies in its use of proven course materials and their incorporation into a laboratory experience for mathematics students, which closely couples theory and experimentation. In addition, the expanded laboratory capabilities are being made accessible to students in lower-division mathematics courses thus broadening the impact of the primary adaptation activity. Finally, the laboratory is also available to advanced undergraduates interested in performing faculty-supervised independent research.

数学科学(21)。一个应用数学教员团队正在调整佐治亚理工学院数学系分析、计算和实验(ACE)实验室以及特拉华大学数学科学系建模、实验和计算(MEC)实验室开发的各种模块。这些模块正被用于一门高级课程，介绍界面流体动力学和自组装动力学的研究，这两项都是当前的研究兴趣，并具有工业应用。这项活动的智力价值在于它使用了经过验证的课程材料，并将它们融入到数学学生的实验室体验中，将理论和实验紧密结合在一起。此外，正在向低级数学课程的学生提供扩大的实验室能力，从而扩大了初级适应活动的影响。最后，该实验室也向有兴趣进行教员监督的独立研究的高级本科生开放。
