Seminars and Workshops
Workshops
OCIAM runs a regular interdisciplinary workshop, usually on Friday mornings at 10am in DHSR1 (though the time and place can vary so check the schedule). These are a regular forum for current industrial and/or interdisciplinary problems to be presented and discussed with members of OCIAM. The aim is to develop or improve mathematical models, to analyse their behaviour, and so to provide insight into the physical processes and phenomena occurring. Anyone is welcome to attend. If you have a problem you would like to present, please contact the coordinator, Dr Rebecca Gower.
The next workshop is shown below. The full term's listing is available from the link on the left.

Seminar Series
Industrial and Applied Mathematics Seminar
The main OCIAM seminar is the Industrial and Applied Mathematics seminar, which takes place in room DHSR1 of Dartington House from 4-5pm on Thursdays in full term. You can also join us afterwards for tea and cakes at 5pm in the OCIAM Common Room.
Mathematical Geoscience Seminar
On Friday from 2.30-3.30pm in even weeks during full term the Mathematical Geoscience seminar takes place in DHSR3 in Dartington House.
Applied Dynamical Systems and Inverse Problems Seminar
These take place every fortnight on Tuesday mornings at 11am in DHSR3 in Dartington House.
Junior Applied Mathematics Seminar (JAMS)
These are for graduate students to talk about their work, and are closed to all senior members of the department (although postdocs may attend). They are held at 1:15pm on Tuesdays of even weeks during full term in DHSR1 in Dartington House.
OCCAM Wednesday Morning Event
These are occasional seminars held in the OCCAM common room in the Gibson Building at 10.10am on Wednesdays.
Upcoming Seminars
The next seminar in each series is listed below. The full term's listings are available from the links on the left.

| We investigate the effect of mass transfer on the evolution of a thin two-dimensional partially wetting drop. While the effects of viscous dissipation, capillarity, slip and uniform mass transfer are taken into account, the effects of inter alia gravity, surface tension gradients, vapour transport and heat transport are neglected in favour of mathematical tractability. Our matched asymptotic analysis reveals that the leading-order outer formulation and contact-line law that is selected in the small-slip limit depends delicately on both the sign and size of the mass transfer flux. We analyse the resulting evolution of the drop and report good agreement with numerical simulations. | |||
