An augmented mixed finite element method for the vorticity-velocity-pressure formulation of the Stokes equations

This paper deals with the numerical approximation of the stationary two-dimensional Stokes equations, formulated in terms of vorticity, velocity and pressure, with non-standard boundary conditions. Here, by introducing a Galerkin least-squares term, we end ...

Parallel Preconditioners for Navier-Stokes Equations and Fluid-Structure Interaction Problems

Gwenol Grandperrin

The Navier–Stokes equations play a key role in the modeling of blood flows in the vascular sys- tem. The cost for solving the 3D linear system obtained by Finite Element (FE) discretization of the equations, using tetrahedral unstructured meshes and time a ...

Analysis Of An Energy-Based Atomistic/Continuum Approximation Of A Vacancy In The 2D Triangular Lattice

We present an a priori error analysis of a practical energy based atomistic/continuum coupling method (A. V. Shapeev, Multiscale Model. Simul., 9(3): 905-932, 2011) in two dimensions, for finite-range pair-potential interactions, in the presence of vacancy ...

Manual vs. automatic meshing for FEA bone strain prediction: validation against experimental data

Adeliya Latypova

Despite recent progress, Finite Element Analysis (FEA) of bone based on microCT imaging involves many manual steps and assumptions, being time consuming and error prone.As a consequence, these different modeling strategies may not necessary lead to the sam ...

Caustic Art

Mark Pauly

The computation of caustics created by reflection or refraction of light is a well-studied problem in computer graphics. This paper investigates the inverse problem: Given a greyscale intensity image, find the shape of a surface that will cast a caustic th ...

A neuron membrane mesh representation for visualization of electrophysiological simulations

Henry Markram, Felix Schürmann, Sean Lewis Hill, Juan Bautista Hernando Vieites, Sébastien Lasserre

We present a process to automatically generate three-dimensional mesh representations of the complex, arborized cell membrane surface of cortical neurons (the principal information processing cells of the brain) from nonuniform morphological measurements. ...

Characterization of T-splines with reduced continuity order on T-meshes

Annalisa Buffa, Mithlesh Kumar

The use of T-splines [30] in Isogeometric Analysis [24] has been proposed in [5] as a tool to enhance the flexibility of isogeometric methods. If T-splines are a very general concept, their success in isogeometric analysis relies upon some basic properties ...

Resolving Ambiguities in Monocular 3D Reconstruction of Deformable Surfaces

Aydin Varol

In this thesis, we focus on the problem of recovering 3D shapes of deformable surfaces from a single camera. This problem is known to be ill-posed as for a given 2D input image there exist many 3D shapes that give visually identical projections. We present ...

Angiogenesis inhibition by the maleimide-based small molecule GNX-686

Hubert van den Bergh, Georges Wagnières, Patrycja Nowak-Sliwinska

We investigated the anti-angiogenic properties of GNX-686, a newly identified maleimide-based small molecule. In vitro studies on HUVEC showed that GNX-686 inhibited cell growth with an ED50 of 20-25 mu M, while human HeLa tumor cells and non-transformed e ...
