The talk is part of the colloquium series of the DIM of the U. de Concepción, where specialists address several applications of mathematics.
Dr. Manuel Solano Palma, a researcher at the Center for Mathematical Modeling (CMM) of the University of Chile and academic of the Faculty of Physical and Mathematical Sciences of the University of Concepción (UdeC), presented the expert talk “Numerical analysis of EDP’s in the modeling of seawater desalination processes.”
Within the context of the colloquium series organized by the Department of Mathematical Engineering at UdeC, Dr. Solano Palma, who is also a researcher of the DSALT Group Project (ACT 210087), provided an introduction to the reverse osmosis phenomenon in water desalination processes on Thursday, May 30th.
“I explained some models with their associated differential equations and methods of numerical resolution of these equations. In addition, I showed several computational simulations of desalination channels“, he said.
The organizer of the event and academic of the Department of Mathematical Engineering (DIM) of the UdeC, Dr. Nicolás Sanhueza Matamala, explained that “the DIM Colloquium is a great opportunity for both members of the department and students to learn about the latest developments in the areas being researched in the department.”
“The lectures are usually followed with great interest by the students because they can learn more about the research that their professors are doing. It is of vital importance because it allows them to project themselves into situations to apply the knowledge they have acquired, whether in undergraduate or graduate theses, or in more professional or industrial settings“, Sanhueza added.
In this aspect, he emphasized that “it was well exemplified in Manuel’s talk, who was able to present the results achieved in the context of a group project. The people who are not from Manuel’s research area – myself included – agreed that it was a very good talk, pleasant and clear. I think it generated a lot of interest, had a good audience, including many students, and there was a good dynamic of questions and answers at the end”.
“There were quite a lot of people and they were interested. They also asked several questions”, said Dr. Solano, who had anticipated details of the talk on TVU’s Multiversos show.
