Physical Laws Meet AI: Transforming Scientific Simulations | Dr Nacime Bouziani

PDE Modelling

What do forecasting catastrophic storms, harnessing the power of stars on Earth to build cleaner energy, and designing vehicles that slice through the air with minimal resistance have in common? The answer lies in Partial Differential Equations (PDEs), the mathematical language that expresses many fundamental physical laws, enabling scientists and engineers to model complex physical phenomena—from the swirling winds of a storm to the flow of air around a speeding car—and solve some of our world’s most pressing challenges.

Early Warning System: Using AI to Detect Drought Stress in Plants | Dr Alice Malivert

Remember in Interstellar how crops were failing everywhere on Earth, with dust storms and droughts making farming nearly impossible? While the rest of this movie is science fiction, climate change is turning that agricultural crisis into reality. Over seven hundred million people suffer from hunger today, and this number continues to rise as climate change reduces both food quality and quantity. Drought stress is one of the most pressing threats to agriculture, especially in low-and middle-income countries (LMICs), where it is the leading environmental cause of crop failure.
