Families of energy operators and generalized energy operators have recently been introduced in the definition of the solutions of linear Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) with a particular application to the wave equation [ 15]. To do so, the author ha ...
In this Master’s thesis, turbulent flow of the atmosphere over the urban canopy of the ‘Sunset’ neighbourhood in Vancouver was studied using a Large Eddy Simulation (LES) model. A high precision Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) dataset was employed to r ...
The evaluation of the equilibrium of a system of forces that fulfils specified boundary conditions is a core question of theory of structures. This paper reviews three methods, related to procedures introduced at the end of the 19th century, to evaluate th ...
An accurate solution of the wave equation at a fluid-solid interface requires a correct implementation of the boundary condition. Boundary conditions at acousto-elastic interface require continuity of the normal component of particle velocity and traction, ...
In this paper we propose a saddle point approach to solve boundary control problems for the steady Navier-Stokes equations with mixed Dirichlet-Neumann boundary conditions, both in two and three dimensions. We provide a comprehensive theoretical framework ...
The one-dimensional tubular reactor model with advection and possibly axial diffusion is the classical model of distributed chemical reaction systems. This system is described by partial differential equations that depend on the time t and the spati ...
We consider a gas of fermions at zero temperature and low density, interacting via a microscopic two-body potential which admits a bound state. The particles are confined to a domain with Dirichlet boundary conditions. Starting from the microscopic BCS the ...
In this thesis we study calculus of variations for differential forms. In the first part we develop the framework of direct methods of calculus of variations in the context of minimization problems for functionals of one or several differential forms of th ...
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 ...
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 ...
