Tenth Annual Graduate Student Mini-Conference in Computational Mathematics

该奖项支持研究生参加2020年4月25日至27日在奥本大学举行的第十届计算数学研究生小型会议。这次为期两天的会议集中在偏微分方程模型的理论和数值逼近方面的最新进展，以及在材料科学、光学、湍流、水文学、生物医学流动和气候系统等领域的应用。该会议成立于2009年，旨在为研究生提供一个及时展示他们的研究、交流思想和建立合作网络的机会，在一个既支持又类似于更大的会议的环境中。会议组织者致力于支持研究生、职业生涯早期研究人员和来自代表性不足群体的研究人员的参与。科学和工程中的许多重要应用都是由偏微分方程建模的，因此对此类模型的准确和健壮的数值方法的需求越来越大。会议主题包括稳健和有效的数值模拟、降阶模型、最优化、不确定性量化和数据同化。会议组织者估计大约有45名与会者，其中包括两名全体演讲者，30名研究生和他们的研究顾问。学生演讲者将根据他们的简历和他们的导师对他们研究成就的推荐从与会者中挑选出来。会议网站是http://www.auburn.edu/cosam/departments/math/compconference/.This奖，反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

This award supports the participation of graduate students in the Tenth Annual Graduate Student Mini-Conference in Computational Mathematics, held at Auburn University on April 25-27, 2020. This two-day conference centers on recent advances in the theory and numerical approximation of partial differential equation models with applications in the areas such as materials science, optics, turbulence, hydrology, biomedical flows, and climate systems. Established in 2009, the conference aims to provide graduate students with a timely opportunity to present their research, exchange ideas, and build their collaborative networks in a setting that is supportive yet similar to that of a larger conference. The conference organizers are committed to supporting the participation of graduate students, early career researchers, and researchers from underrepresented groups.Many important applications in science and engineering are modeled by partial differential equations, and there has been an increasing need for accurate and robust numerical methods for such models. Conference topics include robust and efficient numerical simulations, reduced order models, optimization, uncertainty quantification, and data assimilation. The conference organizers estimate an attendance of around 45 participants, including two plenary speakers, thirty graduate students, and their research advisors. The student speakers will be selected from attendees based on their curriculum vitae and recommendation by their advisors about their research achievements.The conference website is http://www.auburn.edu/cosam/departments/math/compconference/.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
