Student Brown Bag Seminar

Magnetohydrodynamics is a Hard Word to Say, but Machine Learning isn't!

When

1 to 1:45 p.m., Nov. 15, 2023

Where

Speaker: Ari Bormanis, Program in Applied Mathematics, University of Arizona

Abstract:  In this talk I will detail my experience working at Los Alamos National Lab (LANL) this summer and explain how we tried to use neural networks to predict features of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) simulations. MHD, while having a very unwieldy name, is more friendly than it perhaps originally seems! I will explain the basics of MHD and how we used encoder-decoder convolutional neural networks to approach tasks such as surrogate modeling. National Lab gods willing, I will have many pretty pictures.
