SUMMARY:Exhibition:Banner Moments: The National Anthem in American Life
DESCRIPTION:The new Ford Presidential Library lobby exhibit\, curated by University of Michigan musicologist Mark Clague\, illustrates through interpretive panels\, historical documents and photographs\, the cultural 200-year history of “The Star-Spangled Banner” (1814–2014). The tale that emerges demonstrates the power of music and poetry to spark the social imagination and thus create a sense of shared community.\n\nInspired by the successful defense of Baltimore\, Maryland from British attack in September 1814\, lawyer and amateur poet Francis Scott Key penned his now famous lyric. Rather than extraordinary\, Key’s creative impulse was typical of early America’s broadside ballad tradition in which new words were written to fit well known tunes. The result\, however\, was far from everyday—Key could not have predicted that his song would survive the moment\, yet become his nation’s singular anthem.\n\nFollow the “The Star-Spangled Banner” from the moments leading up to September 14\, 1814 through the present day and explore the social history of our national song.\nMarch 2017 to September 2017 \n\nMonday - Friday. 8:45 am - 4:45 pm\nClosed all Federal holidays.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AE Defense: On the Acoustic Component of Active Flux Schemes for Nonlinear Hyperbolic Conservation Laws
DESCRIPTION:On the Acoustic Component of Active Flux Schemes for Nonlinear Hyperbolic Conservation Laws\nby Duoming Fan\, PhD Candidate\, Aerospace Engineering\n\nCurrent numerical methods used in production-level CFD codes are found to be lacking in many respects\; they are only second-order accurate\, rely on inherently one-dimensional solvers\, and are ill-equipped to handle more complex fluid flow problems such as turbulence\, aeroacoustics and vortical flows just to name a few. Recently\, a new class of third-order methods known simply as Active Flux (AF) has been introduced to address some of these issues. The AF method is best understood as a finite-volume method with additional degrees of freedom (DOF) at the interface to independently evolve interface fluxes. It is a fully discrete\, maximally stable method that uses continuous data representation\, and because the interface fluxes are computed independently from the cell-average values\, true multidimensional solvers can be used. \n\nThis dissertation focuses on the development of the AF method aimed at solving conservation laws describing acoustic processes. The method is demonstrated for linear and nonlinear acoustic equations in two-dimensions as well as for the full Euler equations where we employ operator splitting between the advective and acoustic processes. Given its continuous representation\, the AF method economically achieves third-order accuracy using only three DOF in two dimensions\, which is comparable to the discontinuous Galerkin method using linear reconstruction (DG1). A direct comparison between the two methods for acoustic problems finds that the AF method is capable of matching the accuracy of DG1 with a mesh spacing about three times greater and uses time steps about 2.5 times longer. The AF solutions also display superior circular symmetry with significantly less scatter than DG1\, which we attribute to the method being able to employ truly multidimensional solvers. In addition\, we find that on the same grid and to achieve the same level of error\, the computation time for the AF method is more than one magnitude less than DG1 and approximately 3 to 5 less than DG with quadratic reconstruction (DG2). Finally\, various boundary conditions are introduced and developed for the AF scheme including far-field and curved wall boundaries.\n\nDissertation Committee:\nChair: Phil L. Roe (Professor)\nCognate Member: Eric Johnsen (Assistant Professor) \nMembers: Karthik Duraisamy (Assistant Professor)\, Krzysztof Fidkowski (Associate Professor)

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Mapping in the Enlightenment: Science\, Innovation\, and the Public Sphere
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit uses examples from the Clements Library collection to tell the story of creating\, distributing\, and using maps during the long 18th century. Enlightenment thinking stimulated the effort to make more accurate maps\, encouraged the growth of map collecting and map use by men and women in all social classes\, and expanded the role of maps in administration and decision-making throughout Europe and her overseas colonies.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Cosmogonic Tattoos
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of the University of Michigan’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and distinguished U​–M art professor Jim Cogswell has been invited to create a series of public window installations in response to the holdings of the University of Michigan Museum of Art and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology. For this visionary project\, the artist will adhere a procession of vivid images to the glass walls of the museums in a rhythmically evocative narrative\, based on reassembled fragments from a diverse range of artworks in both museums’ permanent collections. The juxtaposed images will address our shared histories and experiences while connecting the viewer to the origins and meaning of objects and their power to shape knowledge\, memory\, and identity. By leveraging the buildings’ unique architecture\, the artist expands our understanding of a museum as a cultural repository and highlights the significant role of these institutions in the life of the campus community.\nCosmogonic Tattoos is on view at UMMA April 22 through December 3\, 2017 and at the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology from June 2 through December 17\, 2017.\nLead support for Cosmogonic Tattoos is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run
DESCRIPTION:In 2013\, artist Ernestine Ruben (BSDEs ’53) photographed the once-famed industrial complex Willow Run in Washtenaw County\, Michigan. Designed by her grandfather\, Detroit architect Albert Kahn\, for the Ford Motor Company\, Willow Run was an exemplar of American defense manufacturing because of its efficient mass-production of B-24 Liberators during World War II.\n\nFor this exhibition\, Ruben overlaid interior views of the now-dormant factory with imagined glimpses into her body’s interior landscape. The resulting compositions seem to breathe energy and light into the stagnant and cavernous spaces of Willow Run and suggest a longing for a productive existence undeterred by mortality for both Willow Run and the artist. Her grandfather’s role in the history of the site underscores Ruben’s personal connection.\n\nThe exhibition presents Ruben’s photographs of Willow Run in UMMA’s Photography Gallery and an original film—co-created by Ruben and video artist Seth Bernstein and featuring an original score by award-winning composer Stephen Hartke—in the Museum’s Forum.\n\nLead support for Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run: Mobilizing Memory is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.
