Circle Packings A circle packing is a configuration of circles with a specified pattern of tangencies.

Cotton Fibers Immature cotton fibers are round, thick, and hollow. As they mature, the lumen collapses and the cellulose thins. Cross section of fiber
Disease Modeling In work with John Calhoun, we’ve used random walk ideas to model disease outbreaks.
Previous Zombie Work Munz, Hudea, Imad, and Smith published a PDE model of a zombie outbreak in 2009. They found logistic growth of the zombie population (and corresponding logistic decay of the human population).
Our Model • Incorporates additional parameters such as • Geography of the City • Hospitals • Human Offensive Capability • Predicts human population survival under some circumstances
