The WKU AMS Graduate Student Chapter is pleased to invite you to an insightful talk by Ahmet Kaan Aydin, a Ph.D. student in Applied Mathematics at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, specializing in numerical methods for stochastic PDEs and control problems.
This talk will take place on Wednesday, April 23rd, from 3:30–4:30 PM in COHH 3119. A Zoom option is also available.
Title:
A Low-rank Solver for the Navier-Stokes Equation with Uncertain Viscosity
Abstract:
The Navier-Stokes equation describes the motion of viscous fluids and plays a fundamental role in understanding fluid dynamics. In many real-world applications, the viscosity of a fluid is not precisely known—it may vary due to temperature changes, material inconsistencies, or other uncertainties.
The approximation of such a model leads to large and complex systems that are challenging to solve efficiently. This talk explores techniques such as low-rank tensor representation to significantly reduce memory requirements and computational costs. Applications extend beyond fluid dynamics, including areas like machine learning. The presentation will conclude with an overview of solver construction and its implications.
