SUMMARY:Ceremony / Service:Celebration of Life and Inaugural Named Professorship
DESCRIPTION:Join the Department of Nuclear Engineering and Radiological Sciences in celebrating the remarkable legacy of President Emeritus James J. Duderstadt for his distinguished career and service to our department\, Michigan Engineering\, and the University of Michigan.\n\nThis special event will also recognize NERS Professor Fei Gao\, the inaugural recipient of the James Duderstadt Collegiate Professorship in Nuclear Engineering\, established in honor of Dr. Duderstadt’s lasting impact as a scholar\, leader\, and visionary.\n\nA reception will immediately follow the celebration.\n\nPlease note this event will not be livestreamed or recorded. Event photos will be made available.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AIM Seminar:  The Willmore energy and curvature concentration
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:  We study isometric immersions of a two-dimensional Riemannian surface into three-dimensional Euclidean space. We consider their bending energy\,  i.e.\, the square-integral of their second fundamental form\, which is equivalent to the Willmore functional. We obtain two new lower bounds for this energy\, one in terms of the Gaussian curvature of the surface\, and the other in terms of a Burgers vector---a measure of non-flatness connected to torsion. These new estimates provide optimal blowup rates of the energy when the curvature is concentrated (e.g.\, in a conical geometry). In the more subtle case of dipoles of concentrated curvature\,  we use the Burgers vector estimates to obtain an optimal blowup rate in terms of the size of the system. Our motivation comes from non-Euclidean elasticity\, in which cones and curvature-dipoles play a central role. The lower bounds derived in this work directly yield lower bounds for the elastic energy of thin elastic sheets. The derivation of the curvature-based lower bound involves an isoperimetric inequality for framed loops\, which we believe to be of independent interest.\n\nContact:  Ian Tobasco

SUMMARY:Other:Capstone & Community - Essential Skills for the Workplace: Project Management
DESCRIPTION:This workshop will cover practical project management skills relevant to those with foundational experience gained from client-based projects and internships. Participants will review essential techniques and explore new strategies for effective planning and communication. Through real-world examples and hands-on activities\, this workshop aims to help attendees strengthen their project management toolkit and prepare for professional roles and upcoming job searches.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Sky Tonight
DESCRIPTION:A live presentation on what to find in the sky tonight and for the coming few weeks. This presentation includes how to find the cardinal directions with the North Star\, current and upcoming constellations\, visible planets\, a few deep sky objects depending on the season\, and other interesting astronomical visualizations. If you want to be able to look up from your own backyard and know what to look for\, this is the show for you.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: Eirini Poulaki
DESCRIPTION:Fluids\, metamorphism and metasomatism including serpentinization and magmatism can weaken the lithosphere and lead to mechanical and chemical processes that affect the strength and slip behavior of fault zones. However\, the competing mechanisms that control strain localization and exhumation rates and the nature of fluids during these processes are still poorly understood. In the first part of the talk\, I will show the importance of in-situ apatite petrochronology from three subduction complexes in the Hellenic subduction zone. Apatite preserves subduction processes including metamorphism\, metasomatism\, and underplating due to its ability to deform\, recrystallize under pressure/temperatures conditions associated with the base of the seismogenic zone. We show that during exhumation apatite records aqueous fluids that were derived from metamorphic dehydration reactions within the underlying slab and migrated along lithologic contacts\, thus revealing the interplay between deformation and fluids that likely contributed to slow slip and tremor along the plate interface.
