Side-by-side hybrid textiles are an intermediate step for the production of fibre-reinforcedthermoplastic composites. Press moulding these materials combining reinforcing fibre textiles andthermoplastic matrix textiles or flexible layers is a promising met ...
We investigate the stability and stabilization of the cubic focusing Klein-Gordon equation around static solutions on the closed ball in R3. First we show that the system is linearly unstable near the static solution u≡1 for any dissipat ...
We consider integer programming problems in standard form max{c(T)x : Ax = b, x >= 0, x is an element of Z(n)} where A is an element of Z(mxn), b is an element of Z(m), and c is an element of Z(n). We show that such an integer program can be solved in time ...
The isodiametric inequality states that the Euclidean ball maximizes the volume among all convex bodies of a given diameter. We are motivated by a conjecture of Makai Jr. on the reverse question: Every convex body has a linear image whose isodiametric quot ...
We present a novel high-order discontinuous Galerkin discretization for the spherical shallow water equations, able to handle wetting/drying and non-conforming, curved meshes in a well-balanced manner. This requires a well-balanced discretization, that can ...
We propose and analyse randomized cubature formulae for the numerical integration of functions with respect to a given probability measure μ defined on a domain Γ⊆ℝ^d, in any dimension d. Each cubature formula is conceived to be exact on a given finite dim ...
We consider integer programming problems in standard form max{c(T)x : Ax = b; x >= 0, x is an element of Z(n)} where A is an element of Z(mxn), b is an element of Z(m) and c is an element of Z(n). We show that such an integer program can be solved in time ...
The goal of scenario reduction is to approximate a given discrete distribution with another discrete distribution that has fewer atoms. We distinguish continuous scenario reduction, where the new atoms may be chosen freely, and discrete scenario reduction, ...
Advanced geotechnical engineering applications, such as shale gas extraction, CO2 geological sequestration, and geological radioactive waste storage, often involve various types of shales located at significant depths. Shales exhibit mechanical properties ...
We find an optimal upper bound on the volume of the John ellipsoid of a k-dimensional section of the n-dimensional cube, and an optimal lower bound on the volume of the Lowner ellipsoid of a projection of the n-dimensional cross-polytope onto a k-dimension ...
