We consider the problem of efficiently solving Sylvester and Lyapunov equations of medium and large scale, in case of rank-structured data, i.e., when the coefficient matrices and the right-hand side have low-rank off-diagonal blocks. This comprises proble ...
We present a detailed calculation of the linear and nonlinear optical response of four types of monolayer twodimensional (2D) transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs), having the formula MX2 with M = Mo, W and X = S, Se. The calculations are based on 6-ban ...
Discretization methods such as finite differences or finite elements were usually employed to provide high fidelity solution approximations for reduced order modeling of parameterized partial differential equations. In this paper, a novel discretization te ...
The present study concerns the numerical homogenization of second order hyperbolic equations in non-divergence form, where the model problem includes a rapidly oscillating coefficient function. These small scales influence the large scale behavior, hence t ...
In this work, we consider an elliptic partial differential equation (PDE) with a random coefficient solved with the stochastic collocation finite element method (SC-FEM). The random diffusion coefficient is assumed to depend in an affine way on independent ...
In this thesis, a computational approach is used to study two-phase flow including phase change by direct numerical simulation.
This approach follows the interface with an adaptive moving mesh.
The incompressible Navier-Stokes equations are solved, in tw ...
The aim of this work is to propose and analyse a new high-order discontinuous Galerkin finite element method for the time integration of a Cauchy problem for second-order ordinary differential equations. These equations typically arise after space semidisc ...
We consider the numerical approximation of lipid biomembranes, including red blood cells, described through the Canham-Helfrich model, according to which the shape minimizes the bending energy under area and volume constraints. Energy minimization is perfo ...
In this paper we consider, from the numerical point of view, a thermoelastic diffusion porous problem. This is written as a coupled system of two hyperbolic equations, for the displacement and porosity fields, and two parabolic equations, for the temperatu ...
We explore the use of radial basis functions (RBF) in the weighted essentially non-oscillatory (WENO) reconstruction process used to solve hyperbolic conservation laws, resulting in a numerical method of arbitrarily high order to solve problems with discon ...
