Electromagnetic time reversal (EMTR) has been shown to be an efficient method for locating faults in AC and DC power grids. In the available literature, the back-propagation medium has been considered to have identical losses as the direct-time medium. How ...

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 ...
We study frictionless and non-adhesive contact between elastic half-spaces with self-affine surfaces. Using a recently suggested corrective technique, we ensure an unprecedented accuracy in computation of the true contact area evolution under increasing pr ...
We study the Cauchy problem for the one-dimensional wave equation \[ \partial_t^2 u(t,x)-\partial_x^2 u(t,x)+V(x)u(t,x)=0. \] The potential V is assumed to be smooth with asymptotic behavior \[ V(x)\sim -\tfrac14 |x|^{-2}\mbox{ as } |x|\to \infty. \] ...
We introduce a greedy non-intrusive reduced order method(ROM) for parameterized time-dependent problems with an emphasis on problems in fluid dynamics. The non-intrusive ROM is based on two-level proper orthogonal decomposition(POD) to extract temporal and ...

This paper presents a new method for the solution of multiscale stochastic differential equations at the diffusive time scale. In contrast to averaging-based methods, e.g., the heterogeneous multiscale method (HMM) or the equation-free method, which rely o ...
This paper concerns approximate cloaking by mapping for a full, but scalar wave equation, when one allows for physically relevant frequency dependence of the material properties of the cloak. The paper is a natural continuation of [20], but here we employ ...
A fully discrete a priori analysis of the finite element heterogeneous multiscale method introduced in [A. Abdulle, M. Grote, and C. Stohrer, Multiscale Model. Simul., 12, 2014, pp. 1135-1166] for the wave equation with highly oscillatory coefficients over ...
We examine the experimental and theoretical electron-energy loss spectra in 2H-Cu0.2NbS2 and find that the 1 eV plasmon in this material does not exhibit the regular positive quadratic plasmon dispersion that would be expected for a normal broad-parabolic- ...
Phoxonic crystal as a means of guiding and confining electromagnetic and elastic waves has already attracted attentions. Lack of exact knowledge on how these two types of waves interact inside this crystal and how electromagnetic wave evolves through this ...
