AboutAbout the lab
Investigating the properties of solutions to equations through both theory and numerical computation
The Ushijima Lab studies the properties of solutions to nonlinear parabolic partial differential equations and numerical methods for solving them.
Many natural phenomena, such as heat conduction, melting ice, growing crystals, and wave propagation, are described by equations called partial differential equations.
The lab investigates the properties of solutions from the perspectives of both numerical analysis and theoretical analysis.
Because the lab studies partial differential equations that serve as mathematical models for living organisms, it is interested in applications to problems in biology.
Key terms
- Partial differential equation
