SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Flora & Fauxna: Photography
DESCRIPTION:Patty Carroll’s highly intense\, saturated color photographs have led to her recognition as one of Photolucida’s Top 50 Photographers (2104\, 2017). Flora & Fauxna is a still life series about women and their homes using decorative fabric\, artificial flowers and ceramic birds to create a sumptuous\, and often humorous\, ornate world. Unlike traditional still life images\, these photographs show no horizon line\, dramatic lighting\, or symbols of death and decay. Birds in many cultures are messengers between heaven and earth\, acting as a bridge between the mundane and spiritual life. In Carroll’s work\, birds represent the human desire to escape gravity and reach the level of angels.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Not Your Grandmother’s Dolls
DESCRIPTION:Charlie Patricolo has been creating\, engineering and executing dolls for 25 years\, and teaching doll making for 20. She studied at the John C. Campbell Folk School in North Carolina\, and has been a member of the Southern Highland Craft Guild since 2002. When teaching\, Patricolo feels that\, “Watching someone go from ‘I can’t do this’ to ‘I can’t believe I did this!’ is pretty fantastic!” Her inspiration often comes when she isn’t looking for it: in songs and books when a line rings out so clearly it cannot be ignored\, or a piece of fabric that refuses to be left behind. Patricolo is now based in North Carolina\, but lived most of her life in Michigan.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Quaker Oats Makes a Movie: A Scrumdiddlyumptious Wonka Adventure
DESCRIPTION:​Quaker Oats forged a new path in the entertainment industry by jointly marketing consumer packaged goods and a major motion picture in 1971\, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. Having never made a motion picture before\, their foray into the filmmaking industry was unexpected and unprecedented. The company saw this film as an opportunity to essentially make a feature-length commercial for their new line of Wonka candy products.\n\nStudents in Matthew Solomon's class\, SAC 355: Authorship and the Archive\, culled though hundreds of production documents related to the film to curate an exhibit that tells a little known behind-the-scenes story about one of the most beloved films.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exercising the Eye: The Gertrude Kasle Collection
DESCRIPTION:Gallery hours are 11 a.m.–5 p.m. Tuesday–Saturday and 12–5 p.m. Sunday\; galleries are closed on Mondays.\n\nThis exhibition celebrates Gertrude Kasle (1917–2016)\, a key figure in the formation of Detroit’s contemporary art community in the 1960s and 70s. A pioneering female gallerist\, Kasle provided midwest audiences with a venue in which to experience avant-garde art from centers like New York City\, while also supporting and exhibiting regional artists. Featuring a collection of paintings\, works on paper\, and sculptures from the height of the Abstract Expressionist movement through the early twenty-first century\, 'Exercising the Eye' speaks to the relationships Kasle fostered with local\, national\, and international artists and her appreciation for artistic expression and experimentation. Critical voices from the last fifty years include Philip Guston\, Jane Hammond\, Grace Hartigan\, Jasper Johns\, Michele Oka Doner\, and Robert Rauschenberg. The exhibition offers visitors a unique opportunity to explore a dynamic moment in Detroit’s cultural history and insight into Kasle’s love of looking and learning.\n\nLead support for 'Exercising the Eye: The Gertrude Kasle Collection' is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AE Defense: Component-Based Aerodynamic Shape Optimization Using Overset Meshes
DESCRIPTION:Component-Based Aerodynamic Shape Optimization Using Overset Meshes\n\nNey Rafael Secco\, Aerospace Engineering Ph.D. Candidate\nProfessor Joaquim R. R. A. Martins\, Dissertation Chair \n\nAdvances in computational power allow the increase in the fidelity level of analysis tools used in conceptual aircraft design and optimization. These tools not only give more accurate assessments of aircraft efficiency but also provide insights to improve the performance of next-generation aircraft. Aerodynamic shape optimization involves the inclusion of aerodynamic analysis tools in optimization frameworks to maximize the aerodynamic efficiency of an aircraft configuration via modifications of its outer mold line.\n\nWhen using CFD-based aerodynamic shape optimization\, generating high-quality structured meshes for complex aircraft configurations becomes challenging\, especially near junctions. Furthermore\, mesh deformation procedures frequently generate negative volume cells when applied to these structured meshes during optimization. Complex geometries can be accurately modeled using overset meshes\, whereby multiple high-quality structured meshes corresponding to different aircraft components overlap to model the complete aircraft configuration. However\, from the standpoint of geometry manipulation\, most methods operate on the entire geometry rather than on separate components\, which diminishes the advantages of overset meshes.\n\nTo address this issue\, we introduce a geometry module that operates on individual components and automatically computes their intersections to update overset meshes during optimization. We apply reverse-mode automatic differentiation to compute partial derivatives across this geometry module\, so that it fits into an optimization framework that uses a hybrid adjoint method (ADjoint) to efficiently compute gradients for a large number of design variables.\n\nBy using these automatically updated meshes and the corresponding derivatives\, we optimize the aerodynamic shape of the DLR-F6 geometry while allowing changes in the wing-fuselage intersection. Sixteen design variables control the fuselage shape and 128 design variables determine the wing surface. Under transonic flight conditions\, the optimization reduces drag by 16 counts (5\%) compared with the baseline design.\n\nWe also use this approach to minimize drag of the PADRI 2017 strut-braced wing benchmark for a fixed lift constraint at transonic flight conditions. The drag of the optimized configuration is 15\% lower than the baseline due to the reduction of shocks and separation in the wing-strut junction region. This result is an example where high-fidelity modeling is required to quantify the benefits of a new aircraft configuration and address potential issues during the conceptual design.\n\nThe methodologies developed in this work give additional flexibility for geometry and mesh manipulation tools used in aerodynamic shape optimization frameworks. This extends the applicability of design optimization tools to provide insights to more complex cases involving multiple components\, including unconventional aircraft configurations.\n\nDissertation Committee:\nChair: Professor Joaquim R.
