Ruth Y. López (Florida State University)
Model Data Integration in Complex Dynamical Systems: Applications to Materials Synthesis
Stochastic Computing
Time: 3:05PM
Location: 232
Many dynamical systems in science and engineering are described by mathematical models, often formulated as systems of ordinary or partial differential equations. These models, however, are only appro... More
