Truncation Error Bounds for Modified Continued Fractions with Applications to Special Functions.
We propose a model of vascular tumour growth, which generalises the well recognised model formulated by Hahnfeldt et al. in 1999. Our model is based on the same idea that the carrying capacity for any solid tumour depends on its vessel density but it also incorporates vasculature quality which may be lost during angiogenesis as recognised by Jain in 2005. In the model we assume that the loss of vessel quality affects the diffusion coefficient inside the tumour. We analyse basic mathematical properties...
This work aims at evaluating in practical situations the capability of the mesh refinement technique based on the multiresolution adaptive method coupled with high resolution spatial and temporal approximations, to recover elementary physical mechanisms by achieving gains in both CPU time and memory use compared to single grid computations. We first present a summary of the multiresolution procedure. We then describe MR algorithms. Finally, the evaluation of the method is presented on several well...
Efficient iterative solution of large linear systems on grid computers is a complex problem. The induced heterogeneity and volatile nature of the aggregated computational resources present numerous algorithmic challenges. This paper describes a case study regarding iterative solution of large sparse linear systems on grid computers within the software constraints of the grid middleware GridSolve and within the algorithmic constraints of preconditioned Conjugate Gradient (CG) type methods. We identify...
In this paper we describe two methods for optical flow estimation between two images. Both methods are based on the backward tracking of characteristics for advection equation and the difference is on the choice of advection vector field. We present numerical experiments on 2D data of cell nucleus.
The numerical solution of the elliptic Monge-Ampère Partial Differential Equation has been a subject of increasing interest recently [Glowinski, in 6th International Congress on Industrial and Applied Mathematics, ICIAM 07, Invited Lectures (2009) 155–192; Oliker and Prussner, Numer.
