Download or read book Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences written by Wade H. Shafer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 411 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and disseminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS) * at Purdue University in 1 957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the activity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all con cerned if the printing and distribution of the volumes were handled by an interna tional publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Cor poration of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 32 (thesis year 1987) a total of 12,483 theses titles from 22 Canadian and 176 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for these titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this important annual reference work. While Volume 32 reports theses submitted in 1987, on occasion, certain univer sities do report theses submitted in previous years but not reported at the time.

Download or read book Adaptive Finite Element Method I Solution Algorithm and Computational Examples written by and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An adaptive finite element method is developed to solve initial boundary value problems for vector systems of parabolic partial differential equations in one space dimension and time. The differential equations are discretized in space using piecewise linear finite element approximations. Superconvergence properties and quadratic polynomials are used to derive a computation ally inexpensive approximation to the spatial component of the error. This technique is coupled with time integration schemes of successively higher orders to obtain an approximation of the temporal and total discretization errors. These approximate errors are used to control an adaptive mesh refinement strategy. Refinement is performed in space, time, or both space and time depending on the dominant component of the error estimate. A computer code coupling this refinement strategy and stable mesh movement has been written and applied to a number of problems. These computations confirm that proper mesh movement can reduce the computational efforts associated with mesh refinement.
Download or read book Mesh Generation written by Pascal Jean Frey and published by Hermes Science Publications. This book was released on 2000 with total page 814 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The numerical simulation of physical problems expressed in terms of partial differential equations (so-called PDE's) using a finite element, finite volume, boundary element, or any other numerical method requires the discretization of the domain of interest into a set of elements, i.e. a mesh. The differential equations are approximated by a set of algebraic equations on this mesh, this set being then solved to provide the approximate solution of the partial differential system over the field. The discretization requires certain properties for the solution to be exploitable and must at least conform to all domain boundaries in order to accurately represent boundary conditions. Consequently, the mesh generation stage, as an essential pre-requisite, is of utmost importance in the computational schemes, as it is related to the convergence of the computational scheme as well as to the accuracy of the numerical solutions. There is indeed a variety of algorithms suitable to produce such meshes. Some of these methods are designed to handle specific geometric situations while others can be used in a more general context. User-driven, semi-automatic as well as fully automatic methods exist leading to structured, unstructured or mixed meshes. The mesh generation problems are mainly related to the boundary meshing (line, curve and surface meshing) and domain meshing issues (planar domain or volumetric domain). Numerous computational issues must be carefully addressed for designing reliable and robust meshing algorithms. These issues concern computer-related data structures and algorithms (low-level routines) as well as advanced data structures and computational schemes (high-level routines). In this regard, basic computational tools, geometric and discrete geometric notions, computational and mesh data structures, element and mesh definitions are of significant importance. The aim of this book is to provide a comprehensive survey of the different algorithms and data structures useful for triangulation and meshing construction. In addition, several aspects will also be described, for instance mesh modification tools, mesh evaluation criteria, mesh optimization, including even adaptive mesh construction as well as parallel meshing techniques.

Download or read book Mesh Enhancement Selected Elliptic Methods Foundations And Applications written by Glen A Hansen and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2005-03-08 with total page 533 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on mesh (grid) enhancement techniques — specifically, the use of selected elliptic methods for both structured and unstructured meshes associated with computational physics applications. Mesh enhancement is the process in which an existing mesh is modified to better meet the requirements of the physics application. To provide the reader with sufficient background information, seven of the nine chapters contain a summary of the numerical simulation process, basic background on mesh terminology and generation approaches, computational geometry, discretization of differential equations, methods of solving linear and nonlinear algebraic systems, geometry of surfaces in Euclidean space, and general elliptic methods for mesh enhancement. Furthermore, these chapters use the concept of harmonic coordinates to develop a unifying framework, the Laplace-Beltrami system, which is the governing principle of the book. The final two chapters apply this scheme, along with other selected elliptic methods, to various structured and unstructured example problems./a
Download or read book Adaptive Mesh Refinement Theory and Applications written by Tomasz Plewa and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2005-12-20 with total page 550 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advanced numerical simulations that use adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) methods have now become routine in engineering and science. Originally developed for computational fluid dynamics applications these methods have propagated to fields as diverse as astrophysics, climate modeling, combustion, biophysics and many others. The underlying physical models and equations used in these disciplines are rather different, yet algorithmic and implementation issues facing practitioners are often remarkably similar. Unfortunately, there has been little effort to review the advances and outstanding issues of adaptive mesh refinement methods across such a variety of fields. This book attempts to bridge this gap. The book presents a collection of papers by experts in the field of AMR who analyze past advances in the field and evaluate the current state of adaptive mesh refinement methods in scientific computing.
