Trapped coil designs allow the operation of lower-frequency coils in the presence of a proton coil. Adding a second capacitor to a trap in the non-proton RF coil allows control over the trap reactance at the low and high frequency (here 13C and 1H) and the ...
Switched dynamical systems have shown great utility in modeling a variety of systems. Unfortunately, the determination of a numerical solution for the optimal control of such systems has proven difficult, since it demands optimal mode scheduling. Recently, ...
In the context of metric perturbation theory for nonspinning black holes, extreme mass ratio binary systems are described by distributionally forced master wave equations. Numerical solution of a master wave equation as an initial boundary value problem re ...
In this paper, we present a mathematical modeling of some magnetohydrodynamic effects arising in an aluminum production cell as well as its numerical approximation by a finite element method. We put the emphasis on the magnetic effects which live in the wh ...
By implementing the moisture-based form of Richards' equation into the geochemical modelling framework PHREEQC, a generic tool for the simulation of one-dimensional flow and solute transport in the vadose zone undergoing complex geochemical reactions was d ...
Dam-break floods on steep slopes occur in diverse settings. They may result from failure of either natural or man-made dams, and they have been responsible for the loss of thousands of lives [Costa, 1988]. Recent disasters resulting from dam-break floods o ...
In this paper we present a method for the numerical solution of elliptic problems with multi-scale data using multiple levels of not necessarily nested grids. The method consists in calculating successive corrections to the solution in patches whose discre ...
This study discusses the capability of the constitutive laws for the matrix logarithm of the conformation tensor (LCT model) within the framework of the spectral elements method. The high Weissenberg number problems (HWNP) usually produce a lack of converg ...
In this work, two problems linked to glacier modeling are investigated. We propose an optimisation method for studying the flow of the ice and we present a numerical study about glacier thermal phenomena. In the first chapter of this thesis, we expose the ...
The comparison of numerical results for implicit-explicit and fully explicit Runge-Kutta time integration methods for a nozzle flow problem shows that filtering can significantly degrade the accuracy of the numerical solution for long-time integration prob ...
