Systematic sensor placement for structural anomaly detection in the absence of damaged states

Jan Sickmann Hesthaven, Caterina Bigoni, Zhenying Zhang

In structural health monitoring (SHM), risk assessment and decision strategies rely primarily on sensor responses. Simulated data can be generated to emulate the monitoring phenomena under different natural operational and environmental conditions in order ...

Biomembrane modeling with isogeometric analysis

Alfio Quarteroni, Andrea Bartezzaghi

We consider the numerical approximation of lipid biomembranes at equilibrium described by the Canham-Helfrich model, according to which the bending energy is minimized under area and volume constraints. Energy minimization is performed via L-2-gradient flo ...

Numerical Approximation Of Orthogonal Maps

Marco Picasso, Alexandre Caboussat, Dimitrios Gourzoulidis

Orthogonal maps are the solutions of the mathematical model of paper-folding, also called the origami problem. They consist of a system of first-order fully nonlinear equations involving the gradient of the solution. The Dirichlet problem for orthogonal ma ...

Méthodes numériques liées à la distribution d'alumine dans une cuve d'électrolyse d'aluminium

Thomas Frédéric Hilke

Metallic aluminium plays a key role in our modern economy. Primary metallic aluminium is produced by the transformation of aluminium oxide using the Hall-Héroult industrial process. This process, which requires enormous quantities of energy, consists in pe ...

MATHICSE Technical Report: Interpolatory rational model order reduction of parametric problems lacking uniform inf-sup stability

Davide Pradovera

We present a technique for the approximation of a class of Hilbert space-valued maps which arise within the framework of Model Order Reduction for parametric partial differential equations, whose solution map has a meromorphic structure. Our MOR stategy co ...

Isogeometric Analysis of the electrophysiology in the human heart: Numerical simulation of the bidomain equations on the atria

Alfio Quarteroni, Luca Pegolotti

We consider Isogeometric Analysis (IGA) for the numerical solution of the electrophysiology of the atria, which in this work is modeled by means of the bidomain equations on thin surfaces. First, we consider the bidomain equations coupled with the Roger-Mc ...

Rational Krylov for Stieltjes matrix functions: convergence and pole selection

Stefano Massei

Evaluating the action of a matrix function on a vector, that is

x=f(\mathcal M)v

, is an ubiquitous task in applications. When

\mathcal M

is large, one usually relies on Krylov projection methods. In this paper, we provide effective choices for the pole ...

Backpropagation-Friendly Eigendecomposition

Pascal Fua, Mathieu Salzmann, Zheng Dang, Wei Wang, Yinlin Hu

Eigendecomposition (ED) is widely used in deep networks. However, the backpropagation of its results tends to be numerically unstable, whether using ED directly or approximating it with the Power Iteration method, particularly when dealing with large matri ...

MATHICSE Technical Report : Low-rank approximation in the Frobenius norm by column and row subset selection

Daniel Kressner, Alice Cortinovis

A CUR approximation of a matrix A is a particular type of low-rank approximation where C and R consist of columns and rows of A, respectively. One way to obtain such an approximation is to apply column subset selection to A and its transpose. In this work, ...

On the Exact Gevrey Order of Formal Puiseux Series Solutions to the Third Painleve Equation

Andrey Vasilyev

In this paper, we study the third Painleve equation with parameters gamma = 0, alpha delta not equal 0. The Puiseux series formally satisfying this equation (after a certain change of variables) asymptotically approximate of Gevrey order one solutions to t ...
