Industrial Mathematics : The 1998 CRSC Workshop

Industry representatives presented the following topics for graduate students to investigate during the ten-day workshop: Curvature Modeling in THUNDER Actuators; Maximizing Deflection While Minimizing Power Consumption in a Piezoelectric Actuator Design; Mathematical Modeling of High Power Amplifier (HPA) and HPA Linearization Through a Predistorter; Time Dependent Consolidation of Fine Powders; High Precision, High Accuracy Control of Fluid Microdispenser Under Variable Load; and Mass Transport and Surface Reaction of Immunoassay.

The workshop, which was sponsored by the Center for Research and Scientific Computation at North Carolina State University, attracted a large number of students representing graduate programs from throughout the United States.
