Here's a short piece I wrote for @Nature Chemical Engineering’s “By the Numbers” series: Small particles, big clusters. nature.com/articles/s44286-0…

Always a pleasure to listen to @stevenstrogatz wax poetic on math (or any subject really). These are some interesting times we are living in podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

Between the current shenanigans and the COVID-19 pandemic, I've learned that it's never a good sign when differential equations are in the news.

Anyone interested in running/visualizing OpenAI's "quirky vortex" that's been getting all this attention, my colleague Ivan Christov at Purdue put together this Python demo: github.com/ichristov/interme…

So I guess the AI agents get the million dollars?
We’re sharing a solution to the Navier-Stokes Millennium Prize Problem, one of the deepest problems at the frontier of mathematics. The proof was produced by a group of agents, using an OpenAI next-generation model significantly more capable than GPT-6 Astra. The problem concerns whether the description of smooth three-dimensional fluid motion modeled by the Navier-Stokes equations can break down. It has remained unresolved for roughly 90 years.

First time jump starting a motorcycle. Luckily my son came to save me. The last scene I wrote in my WIP, my MC was having motorcycle trouble. “Write what you know” I guess.

On the topic of #AI and #consciousness: the real discovery may not be that AI can fool us into thinking it has a sense of self, but that we’ve been fooling ourselves into thinking we do

Here's a fun one. Modeling solid mechanics with peridynamics coupled to a discretely conserving flow solver using immersed boundaries to simulate shock-induced breakup

I'll be joining Maize and Blue Courage and Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel February 10 to discuss academic freedom and what's at stake as federal funding for science and medicine is cut. Tune in 7:00 PM this Tuesday: maizeandbluecourage.com/febr…

Tommy is an amazing agent. He cares about the work he takes on. Gets books in front of editors. What else could you ask for?
I’m looking for more commercial mysteries and thrillers! Stories that readers cannot stop turning the page to find out what happens next!

This week we bid farewell to Dr. Archana Sridhar! After 5 years advancing compressible multiphase turbulence modeling in our group, she’s off to warmer weather as a postdoc at @GeorgiaTech
