Minimizing weighted earliness-tardiness on parallel machines using hybrid metaheuristics
2015
We consider the problem of scheduling a set of jobs on a set of identical parallel machines where the objective is to minimize the total weighted earliness and tardiness penalties with respect to a common due date. We propose a hybrid heuristic algorithm for constructing good solutions, combining priority rules for assigning jobs to machines and a local search with exact procedures for solving the one-machine subproblems. These solutions are then used in two metaheuristic frameworks, Path Relinking and Scatter Search, to obtain high quality solutions for the problem. The algorithms are tested on a large number of test instances to assess the efficiency of the proposed strategies. The result…
Parallel simulation of dense two-dimensional polymer systems
1990
Abstract We present a parallel algorithm for the simulation of dense lattice polymer systems. The algorithm will be given for a two-dimensional system although the algorithm can be generalized to higher dimensions. We discuss timing results and applications.
A FAMILY OF THE SPIRAL SOLUTIONS OF THE NONLINEAR KLEIN‐GORDON EQUATION
1998
A family of the functions, intended for a construction the exact travelling wave solutions of nonlinear partial differential equations, is given. Exact solutions of the Klein‐Gordon equation with a special potential are obtained. The behavior of complex and hypercomplex solutions of the second order is presented.

Numerical experiments with single mode gyrotron equations
2012
Gyrotrons are microwave sources whose operation is based on the stimulated cyclotron radiation of electrons oscillating in a static magnetic field. This process is described by the system of two complex differential equations: nonlinear first order ordinary differential equation with parameter (averaged equation of electron motion) and second order partial differential equation for high frequency field (RF field) in resonator (Schrödinger type equation for the wave amplitude). The stationary problem of the single mode gyrotron equation in short time interval with real initial conditions was numerically examined in our earlier work. In this paper we consider the stationary and nonstationary …
Calculation of heat and moisture distribution in the porous media layer
2007
In this paper we study the problem of the diffusion of one substance through the pores of a porous material which may absorb and immobilize some of the diffusing substances with the evolution or absorption of heat. The transfer of moisture and the heat are described by the model. The system of two partial differential equations (PDEs) is derived, one equation expresses the rate of change of concentration of water vapour in the air spaces and the other the rate of change of temperature. The obtained initial‐boundary value problem is approximated by using the finite volume method. This procedure allows us to reduce the 2D transfer problem described by a system of PDEs to initial value problem…
EFFECTIVE FINITE-DIFFERENCE METHODS FOR THE SOLUTIONS OF FILTRATION PROBLEMS IN MULTILAYER DOMAINS
1997
In papers [1,2] there were consider different assumptions for averaging methods along the vertical coordinate.These methods were applied for the mathematical simulation of the mass transfer process in multilayered underground systems. A specific feature of these problems is that it is necessity to solve the 3‐D initial‐boundary‐value problems for parabolic type partial differential equations of second order with piece‐wise parameters in multilayer domain.Therefore here an effective finite‐difference method for solving a problem of the above type is developed.This method may be considered as a generalization of the method of finite volumes [3] for the layered systems. In the case of constant…
SPECIAL SPLINES OF HYPERBOLIC TYPE FOR THE SOLUTIONS OF HEAT AND MASS TRANSFER 3-D PROBLEMS IN POROUS MULTI-LAYERED AXIAL SYMMETRY DOMAIN
2017
In this paper we study the problem of the diffusion of one substance through the pores of a porous multi layered material which may absorb and immobilize some of the diffusing substances with the evolution or absorption of heat. As an example we consider circular cross section wood-block with two layers in the radial direction. We consider the transfer of heat process. We derive the system of two partial differential equations (PDEs) - one expressing the rate of change of concentration of water vapour in the air spaces and the other - the rate of change of temperature in every layer. The approximation of corresponding initial boundary value problem of the system of PDEs is based on the cons…
The COMPASS Setup for Physics with Hadron Beams
2015
The main characteristics of the COMPASS experimental setup for physics with hadron beams are described. This setup was designed to perform exclusive measurements of processes with several charged and/or neutral particles in the final state. Making use of a large part of the apparatus that was previously built for spin structure studies with a muon beam, it also features a new target system as well as new or upgraded detectors. The hadron setup is able to operate at the high incident hadron flux available at CERN. It is characterised by large angular and momentum coverages, large and nearly flat acceptances, and good two and three-particle mass resolutions. In 2008 and 2009 it was successful…
Observational constraints on decoupled hidden sectors
2016
We consider an extension of the Standard Model with a singlet sector consisting of a real (pseudo)scalar and a Dirac fermion coupled with the Standard Model only via the scalar portal. We assume that the portal coupling is weak enough for the singlet sector not to thermalize with the Standard Model allowing the production of singlet particles via the freeze-in mechanism. If the singlet sector interacts with itself sufficiently strongly, it may thermalize within itself, resulting in dark matter abundance determined by the freeze-out mechanism operating within the singlet sector. We investigate this scenario in detail. In particular, we show that requiring the absence of inflationary isocurva…
Study of dimuon production in photon-photon collisions and measurement of QED photon structure functions at LEP
2001
Muon pair production in the process e+e- -> e+e-mu+mu- is studied using the data taken at LEP1 (sqrt(s) \simeq m_Z) with the DELPHI detector during the years 1992-1995. The corresponding integrated luminosity is 138.5 pb^{-1}. The QED predictions have been tested over the whole Q^2 range accessible at LEP1 (from several GeV^2/c^4 to several hundred GeV^2/c^4) by comparing experimental distributions with distributions resulting from Monte Carlo simulations using various generators. Selected events are used to extract the leptonic photon structure function F_2^\gamma. Azimuthal correlations are used to obtain information on additional structure functions, F_A^\gamma and F_B^\gamma, which orig…
