Boundary Integral Equation Research meetings (BIER)

The Boundary Integral Equations Research group meets regularly to share and discuss current boundary integral equations research in the Applied Mathematics Department here at UC Merced. Topics includes, methods, algorithms, and application in fluid mechanics, optics, chemistry. Undergradaute students,graduate students, postdocs and faculty are welcome to join and attend the BIER meetings !
