The Colorado River Basin (CRB) is a vitally important resource for Western US water supply, agriculture, and hydropower. The 1922 Colorado River Compact promoted growth by allocating a fixed amount […]
Join us for a special screening of Force of Water, a documentary film that follows two communities, one in Ecuador and one in Uganda, as they mobilize to build their […]
Abstract: Most microbes in drinking water do not pose a human health risk, but the presence of pathogenic microbes can have severe public health implications. Hence, the current paradigm for […]
The Maputo Sanitation (MapSan) trial is a long-term study of the health impact of upgraded shared, private latrines constructed by Water and Sanitation for the Urban Poor in urban Maputo, […]
To meet climate goals, there is a need to lower the embodied carbon of concrete. A potential pathway is to implement carbon mineralization schemes to convert industrial wastes (e.g. construction […]

Reduced-order models (ROM) provide practical solutions to problems that were once considered too computationally expensive. In Cardiovascular Mathematics, surgical optimization takes Personalized Medicine to an unprecedented level. Meanwhile, Data Assimilation […]
Thin plates are an elegant and versatile design platform that combine strength and efficiency. They appear in stately geodesic domes, workaday corrugated cargo containers and in countless natural settings, from […]
An increasing number of extreme events - including wildfires and hurricanes - are now being live-streamed online. These streams often emerge from the repurposing of existing infrastructure (such as smart […]
Abstract: During cardiovascular development, peristaltic contraction of the embryonic heart tube produces time-varying hemodynamic forces and pressure gradients across the atrioventricular canal. However, the relative importance of myocardial contraction and […]
In recent years, there has been growing interest in applying neural networks to the data-driven approximation of partial differential equations (PDEs). In this talk, we present GenCFD, a generative AI […]
