The summer school for early-stage PhD students and MSc students, was held in early September 2021. 

The annual conference for and by the members of the research school.

Everybody wishes to build a digital twin, but it is unclear as to what the idea means. This presentation will try to clarify what a digital twin is and show how it can be a valuable tool in digitalization.

A graded Artinian Gorenstein ring A is a quotient of a polynomial ring S with the apolar ideal of a homogeneous form. The Betti numbers of the resolution of A as an S-module are invariants to the homogeneous form. In joint work with Michal and Gregorz Kapustka, Hal Schenck, Mike Stillman and Beihui Yuan, we use these Betti numbers to describe a stratification of the space of quartics in four variables.

Late Lunch Talk by Ruiyun Li

Oliver Röndigs will give a one hour talk entitled "Homotopy of SL_n and the relation between Milnor- and Quillen K-theory"

A NORA workshop in collaboration with Centre for Digital Life Norway, Elixir Norway, University of Oslo and dScience. The goal of this workshop is not only to boost Norwegian and international research within protein folding and function by advanced AI methods, but also to inspire development of AI-powered biotech in Norway.

Doctoral candidate Christian Agrell at the Department of Mathematics, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, is  defending the thesis Probabilistic machine learning and phenomenological knowledge Developments for optimization under uncertainty in safety-critical systems for the degree of Philosophiae Doctor.

Abstract: It is known that a sessile drop subject to a forced vibration will vibrate in different shapes depending on the frequency of the forcing, the drop’s liquid properties and the liquid/solid/gas system. So the question then becomes, what can these vibrating drops help us understand? Here we find that we can use the motion of these drops to understand the constitutive law relating the drop’s apparent dynamic contact angle to its contact line velocity. We find we are able to extract mobility parameters like those described by the Davis-Hocking model, and that mobility parameters extracted in this fashion can be used in simulations of drop-drop coalescence to accurately predict post-coalescence dynamics.

This talk is part of the Mechanics Lunch Seminar series. That means 20min talks plus discussion in an informal setting and bring-your-own-lunch.
