A numerical method for the simulation of the motion of a glacier in two and three dimensions is presented. Glacier ice is treated as an incompressible viscous fluid. The model equations are based on mass, momentum, energy conservation and a specific rheolo ...
There is a growing interest in developing numerical tools to investigate the onset of physical instabilities observed in experiments involving viscoelastic flows, which is a difficult and challenging task as the simulations are very sensitive to num ...
In this project we address the numerical approximation of hyperbolic equations and systems using the discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method in combination with higher order polynomial degrees. In short, this is called Spectral Discontinuous Galerkin (SDG) meth ...
The motion of a two-dimensional glacier is considered. At each time step, given the shape of the glacier, ice is modelled as an incompressible non-Newtonian fluid and a non-linear elliptic problem has to be solved to obtain the horizontal velocity field. T ...
The reliability of computer predictions of physical events depends on several factors: the mathematical model of the event, the numerical approximation of the model, and the random nature of data characterizing the model. This paper addresses the mathemati ...
This paper presents novel coding algorithms based on tree-structured segmentation, which achieve the correct asymp- totic rate-distortion (R-D) behavior for a simple class of signals, known as piecewise polynomials, by using an R-D based prune and join sch ...
The paper deals with long range outdoor sound propagation predictions under range dependant complex environment using the parabolic equation approach (PE). New developments allowing to work beyond the classical limits of the PE method are presented: the re ...
A one-dimensional free surface problem is considered. It consists in Burgers' equation with an additional diffusion term on a moving interval. The well-posedness of the problem is investigated and existence and uniqueness results are obtained locally in ti ...
Recently, it was shown that it is possible to develop exact sampling schemes for a large class of parametric nonban- dlimited signals, namely certain signals of finite rate of innovation. A common feature of such signals is that they have a finite number o ...
We discuss stabilized Galerkin approximations in a new framework, widening the scope from the usual dichotomy of the discontinuous Galerkin method on the one hand and Petrov--Galerkin methods such as the SUPG method on the other. The idea is to use interio ...
