Abstract

Water supply networks are the arteries of cities. Yet their maintenance is expensive and their diagnosis is difficult. Energy and money are wasted by blockages and leaks. A project, the Smart Urban Water Supply Systems (UWSS), led by Prof Mohamed Ghidaoui from the HKUST Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, tackles the problem. The speaker will introduce the project briefly and discuss related mathematics and inverse problems: the water hammer equations, hyperbolic inverse problems on a graph and the boundary control method.

 

About the speaker

Dr Eemeli Blåsten received his PhD in Applied Mathematics from the University of Helsinki in 2013. His thesis won the Rolf Nevanlinna Research Foundation's award for the best thesis in mathematics in Finland. He has conducted research visits to the University of Washington in Seattle and the École Normale Supérieure in Paris. He was a postdoctoral researcher at the Tallinn University of Technology in Estonia before joining the IAS as Postdoctoral Fellow in September 2015.

Dr Blåsten has published in numerous academic journals such as Inverse Problems, Communications in Mathematical Physics and Inverse Problems and Imaging. His research interests include mathematical scattering theory and ill-posed inverse problems for partial differential equations.
