Analysis and application of numerical methods for solving large systems of linear equations, which often represent the bottleneck when computing solutions to equations arising in fluid mechanics, ...

The complex-step method is a clever way of obtaining a numerical approximation to the first derivative of a function, avoiding the round-off error that plagues ...

Brazilian researchers have developed a technique that estimates the force exerted on each grain of sand in a dune from images ...

This paper develops two local mesh-free methods for designing stencil weights and spatial discretization, respectively, for parabolic partial differential equations (PDEs) of ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract This is the first in a series of papers in which we discuss a numerical method to solve a certain class of steady state free boundary problems ...

The DLR Institute of Test and Simulation for Gas Turbines researches new engine technologies by coupling numerical and experimental methods to validate innovative solutions. The technical challenges ...

We're often told it is "unscientific" or "meaningless" to ask what happened before the Big Bang. But a new paper by FQxI cosmologist Eugene Lim, of King's College London, UK, and astrophysicists Katy ...

I joined the University of Sheffield in 1993 and completed an undergraduate Physics Degree in 1997 and a PhD in Medical Physics in 2002. The focus of my PhD study was the interaction between balloon ...
