The class of nonlinear systems treated in this technical note consists of the discrete time nonlinear systems that are formed by the interconnection of linear systems through static nonlinearities with few inputs. This special structure is exploited to red ...
We introduce a new numerical algorithm based on semidefinite programming to efficiently compute bounds on operator dimensions, central charges, and OPT coefficients in 4D conformal and N = 1 superconformal field theories. Using our algorithm, we dramatical ...
An incremental identification approach for determining the kinetics of homogeneous reaction systems from transient concentration measurements has been developed in previous work (Marquardt, W. Chemical Engineering Research and Design 83(A6), 561–573, 2005) ...
We study theoretically and numerically third-harmonic generation (THG) from model geometries (interfaces, slabs, periodic media) illuminated by Bessel beams produced by focusing an annular intensity profile. Bessel beams exhibit a phase and intensity distr ...
We evaluate the information-theoretic achievable rates of Quantize-Map-and-Forward (QMF) relaying schemes over Gaussian N-relay diamond networks. Focusing on vector Gaussian quantization at the relays, our goal is to understand how close to the cutset up ...
Discontinuities in rock masses greatly influence stress wave transmission. Before performing numerical modeling on complicated cases, benchmarking modeling must be performed first to validate the numerical code through comparison with theoretical solutions ...
We derive the Ziv-Zakai lower bound for Impulse Radio (IR) Ultra-WideBand (UWB) ranging error correlation matrix under a classical IR-UWB positioning system. We present the numerical evaluations with IEEE 802.15.4a channel model and the geometry of indoor ...

A numerical study of atmospheric turbulence effects on wind-turbine wakes is presented. Large-eddy simulations of neutrally-stratified atmospheric boundary layer flows through stand-alone wind turbines were performed over homogeneous flat surfaces with fou ...
Engineers rely on efficient simulations that provide them with reliable data in order to make proper engineering design decisions. The purpose of this thesis is to design adaptive numerical methods for multiscale problems in this spirit. We consider ellipt ...
