Dr. H.T. Banks, Director

Dr. H.T. Banks is Director of the Center for Research in Scientific Computation and Co-Director of the Center for Quantitative Sciences in Biomedicine at North Carolina State University where he is also a Distinguished University Professor and Drexel Professor of Mathematics. Prior to this current appointment in 1992, he spent three years on the faculty at the University of Southern California where he was founder and the first Director of the Center for Applied Mathematical Sciences after having spent over 20 years on the faculty at Brown University. Dr. Banks has published over 400 papers in applied mathematics and engineering journals and written four books. He currently serves on a number of editorial boards including Computational and Applied Mathematics, Quarterly of Applied Math, Inverse Problems, Journal of Inverse and Ill-posed Problems, Applied Mathematics Letters, International Journal of Mathematical and Computational Modeling, Mathematical Biosciences and Engineering and was the Founding Editor-in-Chief of the SIAM Frontiers in Applied Mathematics. Dr. Banks is a Fellow of the IEEE, a Fellow of the Institute of Physics, and was the recipient of the IEEE Control Systems Technology Award in 1996, Purdue University Distinguished Alumni Award in 1998, and the W.T. and Idalia Reid Prize in Mathematics from SIAM in 2002.

Dr. Banks' research interests include Inverse Problems and Control for PDE, Modeling in Electromagnetics, Structures, Fluids, and Biology.


 

Dr. Ralph C. Smith, Associate Director

Dr. Ralph C. Smith is Associate Director of the Center for Research in Scientific Computation at North Carolina State University where he is a Professor of Mathematics.

Dr. Smith received his Ph.D. in Mathematics from Montana State University in 1990. Dr. Smith's research interests include aspects of mathematical modeling, numerical analysis and control theory.
