DERC’s Marcus Engsig to Speak at Prestigious MATLAB® User Group Meeting in October 2022

TII · Mar 17

Marcus Engsig from DERC will present a paper at the MATLAB User Group Meeting in Abu Dhabi on October 6. The paper, titled ‘Generalization of Higher Order Methods For Fast Iterative Matrix Inversion Compatible With GPU Acceleration’, discusses a novel approach to matrix inversion using GPUs. The method, named Nested Neumann, achieves 4-100x acceleration compared to standard MATLAB methods for large matrices. Why it matters: This research contributes to faster computation in numerical and physical modeling, crucial for processing large datasets in various scientific and engineering applications in the region.

Yuan-Kai Liu wins EGU poster award

KAUST · Dec 19

Yuan-Kai Liu, a master’s student from KAUST, received the Outstanding Student Poster and PICO Award at the European Geosciences Union General Assembly 2017 for his poster on caldera ring-fault development. Liu's poster presented results from analogue experiments, including deformation characteristics from time-resolved digital image correlation and 3-D spatial photogrammetry data. His research focuses on ground deformation analyses of subsiding calderas, combining analogue experiments with numerical modeling. Why it matters: This award recognizes KAUST's contribution to earth science and engineering and highlights the university's focus on innovative research in geophysics.
