Title: Computational mechanics of hyperelastic soft tissues: numerical solver and modeling challenges Abstract: An important aspect of employing computational mechanics for biomechanical systems is theconstitutive modeling of soft tissues. Even after decades-long investigations into the constitutivemodeling using ex-vivo, in-vivo, and in-silico models, several challenges remain. In this talk, I will…

Title: On a space-time first-order system least-squares formulation of parabolic PDEs Abstract: While the common space-time variational formulation of a parabolic equation results in a bilinear form that is non-coercive, [1] recently proved well-posedness of a space-time first-order system least-squares (FOSLS) formulation of the heat equation, which corresponds to a…
