September 14, 2021: Come check out some members of the lab present at the MUSE Poster Sessions! We will be showcasing 2 on-going projects!
Lana Abdelmohsen: How much can neural networks learn about jellyfish?
Kendra Ebke: When it is good to be out of sync: copepod and marine snow interactions
-
Welcome to the lab, Kendra Ebke and Lana Abdelmohsen!
Kendra is creating mathematical models involving marine snow dynamics and Lana is developing machine learning tools for studying fluid-structure interaction locomotion models.
-
Congratulations to Tierney Baldwin who gave a phenomenal Math & Stats Honors Thesis presentation. Tierney's thesis was titled "Sifting through Siphonophore Swimming: Studying Nectophore Offset Synchronizations"
-
Congratulations to Miruna Baciu who gave a fantastic talk titled, "To Toss Away or Not Toss Away" at the Spring 2021 MAA-NJ Meeting!
-
Tierney Baldwin's preprint for her first scientific paper is out: Hopscotching Jellyfish: combining different duty cycle kinematics can lead to enhanced swimming performance - Check it out!
-
Honored that one of our images was featured as the cover of SIAM Review Volume 63. It's from our manuscript "Fluid-Structure Interaction for the Classroom: Interpolations, Hearts, and Swimming!" that was in this issue! Check it out!
-
You can run this exact simulation (and the others from this manuscript) from our open-source immersed boundary software, IB2d -> here!
-
Simulations ran with MATLAB; data visualized in the open-source VisIt software.
-
Other Valentine's Day related simulations created by our group can be found on this site here!
** Big thanks for Dr. Matt Mizuhara for making us aware of this! **

Tierney Baldwin and Zain Moin presented at SACNAS 2020! Check out their short teaser videos below! Congrats to Tierney and Zain for delivering great presentation
-
Welcome to the lab Eileen Yizzi and Lilly Hoffman!
They will creating a kinematic mathematical model of a lionsmane jellyfish that will be integrated into the IB2d library!
