The invention is related to a method allowing a prover holding a secret key (x) to prove its identity to a verifier and to prove to this verifier that he is within a predetermined distance of this verifier, said method comprising an initialization phase du ...
In this paper we discuss partial differential equations with multiple scales for which scale resolution are needed in some subregions, while a separation of scale and numerical homogenization is possible in the remaining part of the computational domain. D ...
Objectives(i) To assess the effects of mechanical overloading on implant integration in rat tibiae, and (ii) to numerically predict peri-implant bone adaptation. Materials and methodsTranscutaneous titanium implants were simultaneously placed into both tib ...
Many applied problems, like transport processes in porous media or ferromagnetism in composite materials, can be modeled by partial differential equations (PDEs) with heterogeneous coefficients that rapidly vary at small scales. To capture the effective be ...
Parallel-in-time integration is an often advocated approach for extracting parallelism in the solution of PDEs beyond what is possible using spacial domain decomposition tech- niques. Due to the comparatively low parallel efficiency of parallel-in-time int ...
In focusing Kerr media, small- scale filamentation is the major obstacle to imaging at high light intensities. In this article, we experimentally and numerically demonstrate a method based on statistical averaging to reduce the detrimental effects of filam ...
In this work we compare different families of nested quadrature points, i.e. the classic Clenshaw-Curtis and various kinds of Leja points, in the context of the quasi-optimal sparse grid approximation of random elliptic PDEs. Numerical evidence suggests th ...
The computation of the reachable set of states of a given dynamic system is an important step to verify its safety during operation. There are different methods of computing reachable sets, namely interval integration, capture basin, methods involving the ...
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 ...
The characteristic of effective properties of physical processes in heterogeneous media is a basic modeling and computational problem for many applications. As standard numerical discretization of such multiscale problems (e.g. with classical finite elemen ...
