The 3DVAR filter is prototypical of methods used to combine observed data with a dynamical system, online, in order to improve estimation of the state of the system. Such methods are used for high dimensional data assimilation problems, such as those arisi ...
A large portion of software is used for numerical calculations in mathematics, physics and engineering applications. Among the things that make verification in this domain difficult is the quantification of numerical errors, such as roundoff errors and err ...
An explicit scheme for wave propagation modeling of indoor environments is presented. The technique is based on the hybrid parabolic-integral equation method, which provides a correction to the parabolic equation method through a Green's function formulati ...
A small value of the spin gap in quantum antiferromagnets with strong frustration makes them susceptible to nominally small deviations from the ideal Heisenberg model. One such perturbation, the anisotropic Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) interaction, is an imp ...
During filling in 1992 of the Tongiiezi reservoir, in Southwest China, it was noticed that the dam body and the rock masses on the right side of the valley were uplifted up to 22.2 mm and 24.3 mm respectively. After reservoir filling in 1993, the uplift co ...
In this paper, the three dimensional Parallel Realistic Failure Process Analysis (RFPA(3D)-Parallel) code based on micromechanical model is employed to investigate the bonding behavior in FRP sheet bonded to concrete in single shear test. In the model, the ...
Shape Optimization problems governed by partial differential equations result from many applications in computational fluid dynamics; they involve the repetitive evaluation of outputs expressed as functionals of the field variables and usually imply big co ...
The scaling of turbulence-driven heat transport with system size in magnetically confined plasmas is reexamined using first-principles based numerical simulations. Two very different numerical methods are applied to this problem, in order to resolve a long ...
Numerical methods for parabolic homogenization problems combining finite element methods (FEMs) in space with Runge-Kutta methods in time are proposed. The space discretization is based on the coupling of macro and micro finite element methods following th ...
