The goal of this project is to numerically solve the Navier-Stokes equations by using different numerical methods with particular emphasis on solving the problem of the flow past a square cylinder. In particular, we use the finite element method based on P ...
A point-wise approach that can be used efficiently in the numerical solution of Electric Field Integral Equations is introduced. The algorithm is based on the so-called magic distance concept, which defines exactly the point-to-point equivalent of a four-d ...
This paper deals with the nite horizon stochastic optimal control problem with the expectation of the p-norm as the objective function and jointly Gaussian, although not necessarily independent, additive disturbance process. We develop an approximation str ...
We introduce and validate a novel mathematical model for computing the radial profiles of both axial and circumferential velocity components, respectively, of the swirling flow exiting the runner of hydraulic turbines within the full operating range. We as ...
We numerically calculate the first few eigenvalues of the perturbations of self-similar solutions of the spherically symmetric co-rotational SU(2) sigma-model on Minkowski space. ...
We consider a phase field model for the formulation and solution of topology optimization problems in the minimum compliance case. In this model, the optimal topology is obtained as the steady state of the phase transition described by the generalized Cahn ...
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 ...
Bessel-Gauss beams are known as non-diffracting beams. They can be obtained by focusing an annularly shaped collimated laser beam. Here, we report for the first time on the direct measurement of the phase evolution of such beams by relying on longitudinal- ...
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 ...
In this paper we present a numerical tool to simulate dynamics of stratified sedimentary basins, i.e. depressions on the Earth’s surface filled by sediments. The basins are usually complicated by crustal deformations and faulting of the sediments. The bala ...
