SUNDIALS

DALLAS (海角直播) – A multi-institutional team, including 海角直播’s Mathematics Chair Daniel Reynolds and 海角直播 PhD graduate , has been awarded the 2023 .

Daniel Reynolds

The award is given by the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM) and the Association of Computing Machinery (ACM) to recognize outstanding contributions to the development and use of mathematical and computational tools and methods for the solution of science and engineering problems. It is one of SIAM’s most significant awards and will be presented to the team at the 2023 SIAM Conference on Computational Science and Engineering in Amsterdam next February. 

Reynolds, professor and chair of Mathematics at 海角直播 (海角直播), and Gardner, who got a PhD in mathematics at 海角直播, are part of a team that is being recognized for its years-long development of the open-source software suite, designed to provide a reliable tool for solving mathematical equations fundamental to modeling and simulating physical phenomena through easy incorporation into existing simulation codes. The suite includes methods for solving ordinary differential equation systems, differential-algebraic equation systems and nonlinear, algebraic systems.  

David Gardner

Reynolds began collaborating with the team as a postdoctoral researcher at (LLNL) from 2003 through 2005, though the majority of his contributions to the work have occurred during the last 10 years, while on faculty at 海角直播.

Gardner is now a computational scientist at the Center for Applied Scientific Computing (CASC) at LLNL.

The also includes:

  • , distinguished member of the technical staff, Center for Applied Scientific Computing (CASC), (LLNL)
  • , computational scientist, CASC, LLNL
  • , computational physicist, CASC, LLNL
  • , mathematician, CASC, LLNL (retired)
  • , senior scientist, Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of Wisconsin-Madison

“While many researchers in our discipline create exceptional methods, our team put considerable effort into hardening these methods into robust and well-documented software tools,” said Reynolds, who has been at 海角直播 for 14 years. “By recognizing the impact of this software on the SIAM community, I feel as though this award validates that extra effort.”
