DESCRIPTION:As technology continues to advance\, new strategies that invol
 ve a range of scientific disciplines are required. Mathematicians can prov
 ide frameworks to predict operating regimes and manufacture techniques. In
  this talk we present two case studies: the fabrication of precision glass
 \, for smartphones and new flexible devices\; and the development of super
 ior filters for vacuum cleaners. In each case we use asymptotic analysis t
 o determine the fabrication protocol required to produce a desired final p
 roduct.
