About Me
My name is Davis Treybig and I am an incoming Freshman to Duke University who plans on studying Biomedical Engineering. I grew up in Austin, Texas, and am having a very difficult time adjusting to the humidity in Durham. I like to play basketball and racquet-ball, and hope to get involved in extracurricular activities like Duke Student Government and Duke Marketing Club during my stay here.
Homework 2 Demonstrations
My favorite demonstration is the Loma Prieta Earthquake one. It is so cool that by using MATLAB, you can take a small amount of earthquake data and use it to model the position and movement of an earthquake. I had never even imagined that the movement of an earthquake could be modeled; I always assumed it was more of continuous effect over an overall area. While the process was very complicated, the final visualization was impressive.
Name Pronunciation
Davis Treybig is pronounced Day-vis Try-Big.
