Hyperbolic partial differential equations (PDEs) are mathematical models of wave phenomena, with applications in a wide range of scientific and engineering fields such as electromagnetic radiation, geosciences, fluid and solid mechanics, aeroacoustics, and ...
We propose a novel approach for smoothing on surfaces. More precisely, we aim at estimating functions lying on a surface, starting from noisy and discrete measurements. The surface is represented by NURBS, which are geometrical representations commonly use ...
We investigate a finite element approximation of an initial boundary value problem associated with parabolic Partial Differential Equations endowed with mixed time varying boundary conditions, switching from essential to natural and vice versa. The switchi ...
We consider the numerical solution of second order Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) on lower dimensional manifolds, specifically on surfaces in three dimensional spaces. For the spatial approximation, we consider Isogeometric Analysis which facilitate ...
Several computational challenges arise when evaluating the failure probability of a given system in the context of risk prediction or reliability analysis. When the dimension of the uncertainties becomes high, well established direct numerical methods can ...
Numerical analysis of linear visco-elastic materials requires robust and stable methods to integrate partial differential equations in both space and time. In this paper, symmetric space-time finite element operators are derived for the first time for elem ...
INTERNODES is a general method to deal with non-conforming discretizations of second order partial differential equations on regions partitioned into two or several subdomains. It exploits two intergrid interpolation operators, one for transfering the Diri ...
We propose an Isogeometric approach for smoothing on surfaces, namely estimating a function starting from noisy and discrete measurements. More precisely, we aim at estimating functions lying on a surface represented by NURBS, which are geometrical represe ...
We investigate a finite element approximation of an initial boundary value problem associated with parabolic Partial Differential Equations endowed with mixed time varying boundary conditions, switching from essential to natural and viceversa. The switchin ...
In this project report, we first present the application of the finite elements method to the numerical approximation of elliptic and parabolic PDEs over two-dimensional domains. We then consider the theory and numerical approximation of optimal control pr ...
