The aim of this work is to solve parametrized partial differential equations in computational domains represented by networks of repetitive geometries by combining reduced basis and domain decomposition techniques. The main idea behind this approach is to ...
This paper is devoted to the study of the generalized impedance boundary conditions (GIBCs) for a strongly absorbing obstacle in the time regime in two and three dimensions. The GIBCs in the time domain are heuristically derived from the corresponding cond ...
This study investigates the inviscid, linear spatio-temporal stability of heated, compressible, and incompressible coaxial jet flows. The influence of the temperature ratio and the velocity ratio between the core jet and the bypass stream on the transition ...
In this paper, we develop a nodal discontinuous Galerkin method for solving the time-dependent Maxwell's equations when metamaterials are involved. Both semi- and fully-discrete schemes are constructed. Numerical stability and error estimate are proved for ...
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 ...
In this article, we extend this approximation theory developed in (Bazilevs et al., Math Models Methods Appl Sci 16 (2006), 1031-1090) and (Beirão da Veiga et al., Comput Methods Appl Mech Eng 209-212 (2012), 1-11) to the case when the computational domain ...
We investigate the interaction of intracellular calcium spatio-temporal variations with the self-sustained contractions in cardiac myocytes. A consistent mathematical model is presented considering a hyperelastic description of the passive mechanical prope ...
In this thesis we consider a fully coupled model which aims at reproducing some qualitative features of the electro-mechanical activity of the heart. The models used to describe both the electrical and mechanical activities are relatively simple. However, ...
In the wide literature devoted to the cardiac structural mechanics, the strain energy proposed by Holzapfel and Ogden exhibits a number of interesting features: it has suitable mathematical properties and it is based on few material parameters that can, in ...
The purpose of this study is to investigate the role of filling materials (e.g., quartz sand and kaolin clay) in the interaction between a P-wave and a rock fracture. The specific fracture stiffness reflects the seismic response of a filled fracture, while ...
