We generalize and provide a linear algebra-based perspective on a finite element (FE) ho-mogenization scheme, pioneered by Schneider et al. (2017)[1] and Leuschner and Fritzen (2018)[2]. The efficiency of the scheme is based on a preconditioned, well-scale ...
In this thesis we propose and analyze algorithms for some numerical linear algebra tasks: finding low-rank approximations of matrices, computing matrix functions, and estimating the trace of matrices.In the first part, we consider algorithms for building ...
This work is concerned with approximating matrix functions for banded matrices, hierarchically semiseparable matrices, and related structures. We develop a new divide-and-conquer method based on (rational) Krylov subspace methods for performing low-rank up ...
Adjoint-based sensitivity analysis is routinely used today to assess efficiently the effect of open-loop control on the linear stability properties of unstable flows. Sensitivity maps identify regions where small-amplitude control is the most effective, i. ...
We propose a new method for signal separation from a multicomponent interference field recorded in a digital holographic interferometry setup. The setup consisting of multiple object illuminating beams results in an interference field containing multiple s ...
This work develops novel rational Krylov methods for updating a large-scale matrix function f(A) when A is subject to low-rank modifications. It extends our previous work in this context on polynomial Krylov methods, for which we present a simplified conve ...
Let G be a classical group with natural module V over an algebraically closed field of good characteristic. For every unipotent element u of G, we describe the Jordan block sizes of u on the irreducible G-modules which occur as compositio ...
Let G be a simply connected simple linear algebraic group of exceptional Lie type over an algebraically closed field F of characteristic p >= 0, and let u is an element of G be a non-identity unipotent element. Let phi be a non-trivial irreducible represen ...
Semi-analytical solutions are presented for flow to a well in an extensive homogeneous and anisotropic unconfined-fractured aquifer system separated by an aquitard. The pumping well is of infinitesimal radius and screened in either the overlying unconfined ...
Hydrogen atoms have a wide variety of effects on the mechanical performance of metals, and the underlying mechanisms associated with effects on plastic flow and embrittlement remain to be discovered or validated. Here, the reduction in the plastic flow str ...
