JIAQI (JIMMY) LENG University of Maryland, College Park Quantum Approach to Classical Optimization: Why Bother and What To Do? Abstract: Continuous optimization problems arise in virtually all disciplines of quantitative research, including applied mathematics, computer science, and operations research. While convex optimization has been well studied in the past decades, nonconvex optimization generally remains intractable […]
The Next Level is a place for graduate students to support each other through the experience of being a Mines graduate student. Graduate students face unique challenges such as advanced academics, complicated relationships with faculty, research pressures and building a life beyond grad school. Navigating this “next level” can be extremely stressful and exhausting. Graduate […]
Enhanced geothermal systems (EGS) are growing closer to wide-scale deployment, which brings a growing and timely need to develop a data-driven methodology for identifying priority locations for EGS deployment. Currently, a lack of research exists concerning the exploration of enhanced geothermal-related resources. On top of that, stress state modeling, which is essential for EGS success, […]
