We consider a model of the shape of a growing polymer introduced by Durrett and Rogers (Probab. Theory Related Fields92 (1992) 337–349). We prove their conjecture about the asymptotic behavior of the underlying continuous process Xt (corresponding to the location of the end of the polymer at time t) for a particular type of repelling interaction function without compact support.
Isogeometric analysis has been developed recently to use basis functions resulting from
the CAO description of the computational domain for the finite element spaces. The goal of
this study is to develop an axisymmetric Finite Element PIC code in which specific spline
Finite Elements are used to solve the Maxwell equations and the same spline functions
serve as shape function for the particles. The computational domain itself is defined using
splines...
In this paper, we construct a combined upwinding and mixed finite
element method for the numerical solution of a two-dimensional mean
field model of superconducting vortices. An advantage of our method
is that it works
for any unstructured regular triangulation. A simple convergence
analysis is given without resorting to the discrete maximum principle.
Numerical examples are also presented.
We analyze a force-based quasicontinuum approximation to a
one-dimensional system of atoms that interact by a classical
atomistic potential. This force-based quasicontinuum approximation
can be derived as the modification of an energy-based
quasicontinuum approximation by the addition of nonconservative
forces to correct nonphysical “ghost” forces that occur in the
atomistic to continuum interface during constant strain. The algorithmic
simplicity and consistency with the purely atomistic model
at...
We consider an asymptotic preserving numerical scheme initially proposed by F. Filbet and S. Jin [J. Comput. Phys. 229 (2010)] and G. Dimarco and L. Pareschi [SIAM J. Numer. Anal. 49 (2011) 2057–2077] in the context of nonlinear and stiff kinetic equations. Here, we propose a convergence analysis of such a scheme for the approximation of a system of transport equations with a nonlinear source term, for which the asymptotic limit is given by a conservation law. We investigate the convergence of the...
We introduce an one-dimensional thermodynamical particle model which is efficient in predictions about a microscopical structure of animal/human groups. For such a model we present analytical calculations leading to formulae for time clearance distribution as well as for time spectral rigidity. Furthermore, the results obtained are reformulated in terms of vehicular traffic theory and consecutively compared to experimental traffic data.
