  The Math Club integration bee will be on Thursday, May 21 from 11:30-2:00pm in the Calc Lab in the basement.

  
  
  The integration bee is a fun event where you compete to solve integrals faster than other students. There are several levels, so don't worry if you aren't an expert. It's a lot of fun. Oh, and there will be pizza!!

• Math Awareness Month Talk

  April 20, 2009

  The Math Awareness Month Talk will be on Wednsday, April 29th at 2pm in AP&M 6402.
  Paul Linden, MAE Chair and Interim Director of the Environment & Sustainability Initiative (and an Applied Math PhD) will give the talk. There will be cake.

  
  
  Title: Mathematical models of green buildings
  
  Abstract
  The built environment is responsible for about 30% of greenhouse gas emissions in the US. The design of green buildings that use significantly less energy, especially for cooling, requires mathematical models that can assist architects and designers to create new designs. I will discuss one aspect - the use of natural ventilation in buildings which are cooled by using the thermal energy they acquire either through solar heating or from gains within the building from people and equipment. This kind of analysis was used to optimize the design of the new San Diego Children's Museum, among others.
