SIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics, Vol. 35, No. 1 (Jul., 1978), pp. 97-116 (20 pages) The development of velocity profiles in the inlet region of channels or pipes is a classic problem of laminar ...

The marker and cell (MAC) method, a class of finite volume schemes based on staggered grids, has been one of the simplest and most effective numerical schemes for solving the Stokes and Navier-Stokes ...

Partial differential equations can describe everything from planetary motion to plate tectonics, but they’re notoriously hard to solve. Unless you’re a physicist or an engineer, there really isn’t ...

Rose Yu has a plan for how to make AI better, faster and smarter — and it’s already yielding results. In math and computer science, researchers have long understood that some questions are ...
