Physics and Python stuff. Most of the videos here are either adapted from class lectures or solving physics problems. I really like to use numerical calculations without all the fancy programming ...

The Drake Municipal Observatory has helped the general public enjoy the wonders of space from Des Moines for more than a century. Throughout its existence, Drake astronomy professors have led the ...

Much of mathematics involves so-called forward problems. These problems begin with a model of a physical system — say, a ball rolling down an incline plane — and researchers use parameters, such as ...

Bayesian statistics remain popular for addressing inverse problems, whereby quantities of interest are determined from their noisy and indirect observations. Bayes’ theorem forms the foundation of ...

Complicated functions are often built from single parts. For example, the function $f: \mathbb{R} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ defined by $f(x) = (x^2 + 1)^3$ is computed ...

Michael A. Babayev ’28, a Crimson Editorial editor, lives in Hurlbut Hall. From Nobel laureates to industry legends, it’s no secret that Harvard’s courses are invariably helmed by the world’s finest ...

Abstract: Cardiac digital twins (CDTs) are personalized virtual representations used to understand complex cardiac mechanisms. A critical component of CDT development is solving the ECG inverse ...

I'm trying to solve an inverse problem to obtain two parameter values, a and b. I want the initial condition at time t=0 to fulfill a relation, e.g. x_t0 = a/b. Since I have to initialize a and b as ...

The initial-boundary and the inverse coefficient problems for the semilinear hyperbolic equation with strong damping are considered in this study. The conditions for the existence and uniqueness of ...

Abstract: In recent years, there has been notable progress in the development of inverse problems for image reconstruction in pulse-echo ultrasound. Inverse problems are designed to circumvent the ...
