We propose statistically self-similar and rotation-invariant models for vector fields, study some of the more significant properties of these models, and suggest algorithms and methods for reconstructing vector fields from numerical observations, using the ...
In this report we study and compare particular integration methods to solve ordinary differential equations, which are separable in solvable parts. The main source for this work is the article of Blanes and Casas: "On the necessity of negative coefficient ...
This paper advocates a rigorously formal and compositional style for obtaining key performance and/or interface metrics of systems with real-time constraints. We propose a hierarchical approach that couples the independent and different by nature framework ...
The underlying goal of this Master's thesis is of laying down, in so far as possible, the foundations for later work in Geometric Stochastic Mechanics. The first part is a presentation of symplectic reduction, going through the momentum map and culminating ...
This paper studies the interplay between inner classes and virtual types. The combination of these two concepts can be observed in object-oriented languages like Beta or Scala. This study is based on a calculus of classes and objects composed of a very lim ...
Wavelets and radial basis functions (RBF) are two rather distinct ways of representing signals in terms of shifted basis functions. An essential aspect of RBF, which makes the method applicable to non-uniform grids, is that the basis functions, unlike wave ...
Wavelets and radial basis functions (RBFs) lead to two distinct ways of representing signals in terms of shifted basis functions. RBFs, unlike wavelets, are nonlocal and do not involve any scaling, which makes them applicable to nonuniform grids. Despite t ...
We provide a common theoretical framework reuniting specific models for the Ca2+-alginate system and general reaction diffusion theory along with experimental validation on a microfluidic chip. As a starting point, we use a set of nonlinear, partial differ ...
An understanding of the mechanics of unsaturated geomaterials has become an important component of the background of a geo-engineer operating in various fields of geomechanics. Several geotechnical operations, such as compaction and excavation processes, a ...
The approximate behavior of wavelets as differential operators is often considered as one of their most fundamental properties. In this paper, we investigate how we can further improve on the wavelet's behavior as differentiator. In particular, we propose ...
