About Adam (and FAQ)
I’m originally from the suburbs of Minneapolis. I received a degree in mathematics and computer science from UW-Madison in 2002, after which I worked in computer science research at Los Alamos National Laboratory and in aviation weather at CLH (now a subsidiary of Vaisala) for a while. In the fall of 2005, I started law school at UC Hastings College of the Law. I was graduated to the degree of J. D. on May 18, 2008.
So what’s this all about?
Commentary, law, culture, food, humor, Cool Stuff, whatever I feel like. I’m intending for this to have a slightly professional slant, by which I mean a sizable portion of the posts will have a legal focus. We’ll see how that turns out; right now it’s about half and half.
What is a Tellumo?
I was searching for a new online identity a while ago, and came across Tellumo in a list of obscure Roman mythological figures. I liked the sound, the domain name was available, and there didn’t appear to be too much attached to it. So here we are!
You have nifty pictures too, right?
Yep! You can find me on my Flickr page. Sometimes I’ll post them on this site as well.
May I have a copy of your resume?
Of course. It’s on this server at EngelhartAdamResume.pdf.
What is your Erdös number?
Seven:
- Adam Engelhart, Mark Gardner, and Wu-chun Feng wrote Re-Architecting Flow Control Adaptation for Grid Environments;
- Michael S. Warren, Eric Weigle, and Wu-chun Feng wrote High-density computing: a 240-processor Beowulf in one cubic meter;
- P. Ploumhans, G. S. Winckelmans, J. K. Salmon, A. Leonard, and M. S. Warren wrote Vortex methods for direct numerical simulation of three-dimensional bluff body flows: application to the sphere at Re = 300, 500, and 1000;
- A. Leonard and T. W. Mullikin wrote Integral equations with difference kernels on finite intervals;
- C. T. Kelley and T. W. Mullikin wrote Collocation methods for some singular integral equations in linear transport theory;
- Marc A. Berger and C. T. Kelley wrote A variational equivalent to diagonal scaling; and
- Marc A. Berger, Paul Erdös, Alexander Felzenbaum, and Avieri S. Fraenkel wrote Nearly disjoint covering systems.
If you had a motto, what would it be?
"One does what one can." I think that’s the important thing to remember in life–you need to do what you can to survive and to make this world just a tiny bit better, and if you can’t do anything more, you shouldn’t fret about it–you did what you could.
