SUMMARY:Applications of the Unified Transform Method to Poroelastic Plates
  in Flow - Dr Alistair Hales\, Virginia Tech University
DTSTART:20251030T160000Z
DTEND:20251030T180000Z
UID:TALK235273@talks.cam.ac.uk
CONTACT:Dr Matthew Nethercote
DESCRIPTION:The unified transform method is a powerful tool for scattering
  problems. Previously\, Dr Lorna Ayton and Dr Matthew Colbrook used the me
 thod to develop a versatile and efficient framework for solving elastic sc
 attering by collinear plates. In this talk\, we outline how this work has 
 been adapted to include uniform flow. We will introduce the method\, brief
 ly compare it with its primary analytical competitor\, the Wiener–Hopf t
 echnique\, and then discuss several sub-problems associated with adapting 
 the method to study pororelastic plates in grazing flow. Then\, we address
  the future applications for which the method is well-suited to act as a b
 ridge between fully analytical methods\, such as Wiener-Hopf\, and numeric
 al alternatives like boundary integral methods.
