High-order geometric integrators for the variational Gaussian wavepacket dynamics and application to vibronic spectra at finite temperature

Molecular quantum dynamics simulations are essential for understanding many fundamental phenomena in physics and chemistry. They often require solving the time-dependent Schrödinger equation for molecular nuclei, which is challenging even for medium-sized ...

An Inverse-Filter-Based Method to Locate Partial Discharge Sources in Power Transformers

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein, Hamidreza Karami

Partial discharge (PD) occurrence in power transformers can lead to irreparable damage to the power network. In this paper, the inverse filter (IF) method to localize PDs in power transformers is proposed. To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the ...

Spectral Coarse Spaces for the Substructured Parallel Schwarz Method

Tommaso Vanzan

The parallel Schwarz method (PSM) is an overlapping domain decomposition (DD) method to solve partial differential equations (PDEs). Similarly to classical nonoverlapping DD methods, the PSM admits a substructured formulation, that is, it can be formulated ...

Computational Inverse Design of Surface-based Inflatables

Mark Pauly, Florin Isvoranu, Tian Chen, Francis Julian Panetta

We present a computational inverse design method for a new class of surface-based inflatable structure. Our deployable structures are fabricated by fusing together two layers of inextensible sheet material along carefully selected curves. The fusing curves ...

A Newton Frank-Wolfe method for constrained self-concordant minimization

Volkan Cevher, Quoc Tran Dinh

We develop a new Newton Frank-Wolfe algorithm to solve a class of constrained self-concordant minimization problems using linear minimization oracles (LMO). Unlike L-smooth convex functions, where the Lipschitz continuity of the objective gradient holds gl ...

Light Path Gradients for Forward and Inverse Rendering

Tizian Lucien Zeltner

Physically based rendering is a process for photorealistic digital image synthesis and one of the core problems in computer graphics. It involves simulating the light transport, i.e. the emission, propagation, and scattering of light through a virtual scen ...

Design and control of a prototype structure that adapts to loading through large shape changes

Ian Smith, Gennaro Senatore, Arka Prabhata Reksowardojo, Apoorv Srivastava

This paper reports on experimental testing that was carried out on a prototype adaptive structure designed to counteract the effect of loading through controlled large shape changes. The prototype is 6.6 m truss equipped with 12 linear actuators which has ...

Expectation propagation in the large data limit

Guillaume Philippe Ivan Joseph Dehaene

Expectation propagation (EP) is a widely successful algorithm for variational inference. EP is an iterative algorithm used to approximate complicated distributions, typically to find a Gaussian approximation of posterior distributions. In many applications ...

Fast hierarchical solvers for symmetric eigenvalue problems

Ana Susnjara

In this thesis we address the computation of a spectral decomposition for symmetric banded matrices. In light of dealing with large-scale matrices, where classical dense linear algebra routines are not applicable, it is essential to design alternative tech ...

Adequacy of Immersive Virtual Reality for the Perception of Daylit Spaces: Comparison of Real and Virtual Environments

Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Kynthia Chamilothori

This article presents a novel experimental method that uses a virtual reality (VR) headset, aiming to provide an alternative environment for the conduction of subjective assessments of daylit spaces. This method can overcome the difficulty of controlling t ...
