Convergence of Two-Dimensional Nyström Discrete-Ordinates in Solving the Linear Transport Equation.
In this paper we present a few results on convergence for the prime integrals equations connected with the bounce problem. This approach allows both to prove uniqueness for the one-dimensional bounce problem for almost all permissible Cauchy data (see also [6]) and to deepen previous results (see [3], [5], [7]).
This paper is concerned with the coupling of two models for the propagation of particles in scattering media. The first model is a linear transport equation of Boltzmann type posed in the phase space (position and velocity). It accurately describes the physics but is very expensive to solve. The second model is a diffusion equation posed in the physical space. It is only valid in areas of high scattering, weak absorption, and smooth physical coefficients, but its numerical solution is much cheaper...

In this paper we study the asymptotic behavior of solutions to the damped, nonlinear vibration equation with self-interaction which is known as degenerate if , and non-degenerate if . We would like to point out that, to the author’s knowledge, exponential decay for this type of equations has been studied just for the special cases of . Our aim is to extend the validity of previous results in [5] to both to the degenerate and non-degenerate cases of . We extend our results to equations with...
This note is concerned with the linear Volterra equation of hyperbolic type on the whole space ℝN. New results concerning the decay of the associated energy as time goes to infinity were established.
We present two defect correction schemes to accelerate the Petrov-Galerkin finite element methods [19] for nonlinear Volterra integro-differential equations. Using asymptotic expansions of the errors, we show that the defect correction schemes can yield higher order approximations to either the exact solution or its derivative. One of these schemes even does not impose any extra regularity requirement on the exact solution. As by-products, all of these higher order numerical methods can also be...
