As part of its advocacy for Gender Equality and Inclusion in STEM, AIMS Ghana is organising the Climate Science Speaker Series (CSSS) to inspire members of the STEM ecosystem, especially young women, to address climate change. The CSSS is scheduled for Wednesday, 24th November 2021 at 10:00 am at the UPSA East Wing Conference Room.
Speaker 1: Dr. Sabrine Chebbi (Department of mathematics, University of Tunis El MANAR, UTM) Title: The Energy decay rate of 1D and 2D Timoshenko systems: Theoretical analysis and numerical simulation Abstract 1: We focus on the behavior of the solutions of the Timoshenko systems in dimensions 1 and 2 using the lower bound estimates of the energy.
Happy World Science Day for Peace & Development. Climate Change is a serious threat to the planet & in support, AIMS Research focuses on Climate Change Science as an impact area, looking into action/ ways to address some of these environmental issues. More about our research centres HERE
Abstract: It is a classical yet surprising result that noise can have a regularizing effect on differential equations. For example, adding a Brownian motion to an ODE with a bounded and measurable vector field leads to a well-posed equation with Lipschitz continuous flow. While the equation without noise may have none or many solutions. Classical proofsare
The Girls in Mathematical Sciences Program (GMSP) Beneficiaries (Cohort 1) are currently at the AIMS Ghana Centre for their final residential session. The GMSP 9-month training for Senior High School girls has been running since its launch in November 2020. The participants have had various sessions both online and face-to-face for training, mentorship and exposure
Abstract: In this talk, we consider the numerical approximation for a class of radial Dunkl processes corresponding to arbitrary (reduced) root systems. This class contains some well-known processes such as Bessel processes and Dyson’s Brownian motions. We introduce a backward and truncated Euler–Maruyama scheme, which can be implemented on a computer, and study its rate of
As a highly technical and mathematical Institution, AIMS Ghana believes that the only way to ensure that graduates are flexible and fit for top-tier institutions is to inculcate some soft, social and leadership skills that employers would need in their organizations. There is also a segment that focuses on enhancing Entrepreneurial capabilities through design thinking and ideation where the students would focus on solving pressing issues within
