In a region D in R-2 or R-3, the classical Euler equation for the regular motion of an inviscid and incompressible fluid of constant density is given by partial derivative(t)v + (v . del(x))v = -del(xP), div(x)v = 0, where v(t, x) is the velocity of the pa ...
We study spectral properties of generalized weighted Hilbert matrices. In particular, we establish results on the spectral norm, the determinant, and various relations between the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of such matrices. We also study the asymptotic ...
In this paper, we study the problem of approximately computing the product of two real matrices. In particular, we analyze a dimensionality-reduction-based approximation algorithm due to Sarlos [1], introducing the notion of nuclear rank as the ratio of th ...
The two well problem consists in finding maps u which satisfy some boundary conditions and whose gradient Du assumes values in the two wells . Here (similarly ) is the well generated by a 2 x 2 matrix A, i.e., is the set of matrices of the form RA, where R ...
A burner configuration that allows the creation of nearly unstretched one-dimensional diffusion flames has recently been introduced. This paper presents the first detailed characterization of flames produced in such a burner to assess how well they approac ...
In this paper we propose a local orthogonal decomposition method (LOD) for elliptic partial differential equations with inhomogeneous Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions. For this purpose, we present new boundary correctors which preserve the common ...
Let c : A(k-1) -> R+ be convex and Omega subset of R-n be a bounded domain. Let f(0) and f(1) be two closed k-forms on Omega satisfying appropriate boundary conditions. We discuss the minimization of integral(Omega) c (A) dx over a subset of (k - 1)-forms ...
In Switzerland many new residential buildings are constructed as unreinforced masonry (URM) structures or as mixed structures where URM walls are coupled with reinforced concrete (RC) walls by RC slabs. At present the boundary conditions of URM walls subje ...
The modern expressions for polarization P and orbital magnetization M are k-space integrals. But a genuine bulk property should also be expressible in r space, as an unambiguous function of the ground-state density matrix, "nearsighted'' in insulators, ind ...
Fluid codes simulating the dynamics of magnetized plasmas with field lines terminating on the device vessel require boundary conditions that are consistent with the plasma-wall transition region. When the magnetic field strikes the wall at an oblique angle ...
