Understanding the plasma dynamics in tokamaks is of fundamental importance to reliably predict the performances of future fusion devices. Because of the complex phenomena at play, state-of-the-art simulation codes are needed to investigate the plasma dynam ...
In this paper we give a survey on various multiscale methods for the numerical solution of second order hyperbolic equations in highly heterogenous media. We concentrate on the wave equation and distinguish between two classes of applications. First we dis ...
A fully discrete a priori analysis of the finite element heterogenenous multiscale method (FE-HMM) introduced in [A. Abdulle, M. Grote, C. Stohrer, MultiscaleModel. Simul. 2014] for the wave equation with highly oscillatory coefficients over long time is p ...
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 ...
Solar energy has seen tremendous advances in the past years. For thin film photovoltaics, which use less of the expensive semiconductor materials, insufficient light absorption can be a limiting factor. It is hoped that by using diffractive optics to impro ...
A new finite element heterogeneous multiscale method (FE-HMM) is proposed for the numerical solution of the wave equation over long times in a rapidly varying medium. Our new FE-HMM-L method captures not only the short-time behavior of the wave field, well ...
This paper focuses on multiple tab-and-slot joints (MTSJ) for load-carrying assembly of structural wood elements, which are inspired by traditional cabinetmaking joints and adapted for automatic fabrication and engineered wood panels such as laminated vene ...
In this report, we first introduce operator splitting as a way to solve nonlinear reaction-diffusion PDEs. We then present a flux-limiting technique for anisotropic diffusion problems that allows to recover the discrete maximum principle. Finally, we imple ...
A family of effective equations for the wave equation in locally periodic media over long time is derived. In particular, explicit formulas for the effective tensors are provided. To validate the derivation, an a priori error estimate between the effective ...
Runaway electrons, which are generated in a plasma where the induced electric field exceeds a certain critical value, can reach very high energies in the MeV range. For such energetic electrons, radiative losses will contribute significantly to the momentu ...
