In conjunction with the Picture a Scientist film screening, USU hosts an online panel discussion Monday, March 8 (International Women’s Day) at noon on Zoom, with the film’s director and producer Sharon Shattuck, along with USU faculty members Dr. Sojung Lim, Dr. Claudia Radel and Dr. Katherine Vela.
Virtual Applied Math Seminar
Conference/Seminar
Background: Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, US hospitals relied on static projections of future trends for long-term planning and were only beginning to look to forecasting methods for short-term planning of staffing and other resource needs. With the overwhelming burden imposed by COVID-19 on the healthcare system, an emergent need exists to accurately forecast hospitalization needs, including beds, ICUs, and mechanical ventilators, within an actionable timeframe of two-four weeks.

Applied Math Seminar: Resource Allocation in the Smart Grid Using an Neural Network and Sliding Time Window Optimization
Conference/Seminar
ZOOM ID: 853 8451 6725 PWD: USUAMS
Speaker: Dr. Yingying Zheng, Department of Biological Engineering, USU
Abstract: The success of an efficient and effective residential demand response system in the smart grid relies on the customer incentive pricing and the load shifting protocols. In this talk, I will present an artificial neural network model, which is designed to generate the day-ahead customer incentive pricing based on historical data. Load scheduling is designed as a day-ahead optimization problem that is solved using a blocked sliding window technique implemented using parallel computing.

A Research-Based Approach for Improving Precalculus Teaching and Learning
By Dr. Marilyn Carlson
Arizona State University School of Mathematical & Statistical Sciences
Abstract: The function concept is a central idea of precalculus and beginning calculus and is used for modeling in the sciences and engineering, yet many students complete courses in precalculus and calculus with weak understandings of this concept. Students who are unable to construct meaningful function formulas to relate two varying quantities have little chance of responding to novel applied problems, or understanding key ideas of calculus such as derivative, accumulation and the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus. I will share data that reveals how students might construct these and other critical reasoning abilities and understandings for learning calculus. I will share the research developed Pathways Precalculus student materials and teacher resources that provide the context for this research, and are resulting in large gains in student learning of the function concept and other foundational ideas for learning calculus..
