Simon Fraser University

We invite graduate students and faculty to participate in this exciting and educational event. A number of graduate students will also participate in the 9th Graduate Mathematics Modelling Camp (GIMMC) at Simon Fraser University, June 21-25, 2006.

The Graduate Industrial Mathematics Modelling Camp is designed to give graduate students in the Mathematical Sciences an opportunity to learn techniques of mathematical modeling under the supervision and guidance of experts in the field. On Wednesday...

The Actuarial Research Conference (ARC) is an annual event jointly sponsored by the Society of Actuaries and the host university. SFU has been chosen to host the 45th edition of the conference in 2010. It is the most important conference in North...

The inaugural Graduate Industrial Mathematical Modeling Camp (GIMM) of the Pacific Institute for the Mathematical Sciences (PIMS) was held at Simon Fraswer University from May 24-29, 1988. Close to 40 graduate and soon to be graduate students from...

Mathematics is integral to every aspect of game development including character and level creation, movement, player input, NPC behaviour, physics simulations, and real-time rendering. Fortunately for game designers, most of this computation is...

The purpose of the conference is to promote interaction and networking among new researchers in these fields. The participants will present their research via a short expository talk and a poster and mingle throughout the day. There will be plenary...

I am working with colleagues on several projects modelling Lithium Ion batteries. Experimental results are fit to simple models of performance and ``State of Health”, a vaguely defined measure of the change of battery characteristics with use and age...

Skeletal muscle are complex living tissues that can undergo large deformations in short periods of time. Also, it is known that small volumetric changes can occur during contraction. In this presentation we introduce a dynamic nonlinear elastic...

The run-and-tumble motion of bacteria such as E. Coli can be represented by a kinetic equation considered with an hyperbolic scaling, and a Hopf-Cole transformation that makes the problem become non-linear. It has been proved that the asymptotic...
