In continuing celebration of the 50th anniversary of our doctoral program, the UW-Milwaukee Mathematical Sciences department will be hosting the Mathematical Association of America (MAA) Wisconsin Section Spring Meeting, April 21-22, 2017. All conference events will be held in the Engineering... Read More
Symmetry and the Alhambra Mosaics Featuring: Fredric Ancel University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Professor of Mathematics "Every pattern has some symmetry which mathematicians study using the idea of a symmetry group – a group of all the ways a pattern or object... Read More
Performance Test of the Pasquill Stability Scheme Hillary Chapman University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee MS Student "In 1961, Frank Pasquill proposed a method for classifying atmospheric stability based on routinely available surface observations – namely wind speed, cloud cover, and the strength...

Infinite-Dimensional Traits: Estimation of Mean, Covariance, and Selection Gradient Ly Viet Hoang University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee MS Student "In evolutionary biology, traits like growth curves, reaction norms or morphological shapes cannot be described by a finite vector of components alone. Instead, ... Read More
Downstream Predictability of the Path and Survival of Severe Wind Producing MCSs using RUC Analysis Data Russell Danielson University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee MS Student "A method for predicting the track of mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) is developed, based upon meteorological parameters...

Asymptotic Expansion of the L^2-Norm of a Solution of the Strongly Damped Wave Equation Joseph Barrera University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Graduate Student "The Fourier transform, F, on RN (N≥1) transforms the Cauchy problem for the strongly damped wave equation utt(t,x) -... Read More
A Study of the Effect of Using Simulations on Students’ Learning of Inferential Statistics in the Elementary Statistics Classes in the Mathematics Department of the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Alexa Schut University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee MS Student "We will present the results... Read More
Cocompact Cubulations of Mixed 3-manifolds Joseph Tidmore University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee PhD Student "Geometric group theory studies the connections between the algebraic properties of a group and the topological and geometric properties of spaces on which the group acts. If G... Read More
Associated Hypothesis in Linear Models with Unbalanced Data Rica Wedowski MS Student University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee "In a two-way linear model one can test six different hypotheses regarding the effects in this model. Those hypotheses can be ranked from less specific... Read More
