Mellin transform approach for the solution of coupled systems of fractional differential equations
2015
In this paper, the solution of a multi-order, multi-degree-of-freedom fractional differential equation is addressed by using the Mellin integral transform. By taking advantage of a technique that relates the transformed function, in points of the complex plane differing in the value of their real part, the solution is found in the Mellin domain by solving a linear set of algebraic equations. The approximate solution of the differential (or integral) equation is restored, in the time domain, by using the inverse Mellin transform in its discretized form.
Partial differential equations governed by accretive operators
2012
The theory of nonlinear semigroups in Banach spaces generated by accretive operators has been very useful in the study of many nonlinear partial differential equations Such a theory is fundamentally based in the Crandall-Liggett Theorem and in the contributions of Ph. Benilan. In this paper, after outlining some of the main points of this theory, we present some of the applications to some nonlinear partial differential equations that appear in different fields of Science.
Numerical Investigations of an Implicit Leapfrog Time-Domain Meshless Method
2014
Numerical solution of partial differential equations governing time domain simulations in computational electromagnetics, is usually based on grid methods in space and on explicit schemes in time. A predefined grid in the problem domain and a stability step size restriction need. Recently, the authors have reformulated the meshless framework based on smoothed particle hydrodynamics, in order to be applied for time domain electromagnetic simulation. Despite the good spatial properties, the numerical explicit time integration introduces, also in a meshless context, a severe constraint. In this paper, at first, the stability condition is addressed in a general way by allowing the time step inc…
A fast hierarchical dual boundary element method for three-dimensional elastodynamic crack problems
2010
In this work a fast solver for large-scale three-dimensional elastodynamic crack problems is presented, implemented, and tested. The dual boundary element method in the Laplace transform domain is used for the accurate dynamic analysis of cracked bodies. The fast solution procedure is based on the use of hierarchical matrices for the representation of the collocation matrix for each computed value of the Laplace parameter. An ACA (adaptive cross approximation) algorithm is used for the population of the low rank blocks and its performance at varying Laplace parameters is investigated. A preconditioned GMRES is used for the solution of the resulting algebraic system of equations. The precond…
A marching in space and time (MAST) solver of the shallow water equations. Part II: The 2D model
2007
Abstract A novel methodology for the solution of the 2D shallow water equations is proposed. The algorithm is based on a fractional step decomposition of the original system in (1) a convective prediction, (2) a convective correction, and (3) a diffusive correction step. The convective components are solved using a Marching in Space and Time (MAST) procedure, that solves a sequence of small ODEs systems, one for each computational cell, ordered according to the cell value of a scalar approximated potential. The scalar potential is sought after computing first the minimum of a functional via the solution of a large linear system and then refining locally the optimum search. Model results are…
Well-posedness of the boundary layer equations
2004
We consider the mild solutions of the Prandtl equations on the half space. Requiring analyticity only with respect to the tangential variable, we prove the short time existence and the uniqueness of the solution in the proper function space. Theproof is achieved applying the abstract Cauchy--Kowalewski theorem to the boundary layer equations once the convection-diffusion operator is explicitly inverted. This improves the result of [M. Sammartino and R. E. Caflisch, Comm. Math. Phys., 192 (1998), pp. 433--461], as we do not require analyticity of the data with respect to the normal variable.
Polarization modulation instability in a Manakov fiber system
2015
International audience; The Manakov model is the simplest multicomponent model of nonlinear wave theory: It describes elementary stable soliton propagation and multisoliton solutions, and it applies to nonlinear optics, hydrodynamics, and Bose-Einstein condensates. It is also of fundamental interest as an asymptotic model in the context of the widely used wavelength-division-multiplexed optical fiber transmission systems. However, although its physical relevance was confirmed by the experimental observation of Manakov (vector) solitons in a planar waveguide in 1996, there have in fact been no quantitative experiments confirming its validity for nonlinear dynamics other than soliton formatio…
Guaranteed lower bounds for cost functionals of time-periodic parabolic optimization problems
2019
In this paper, a new technique is shown for deriving computable, guaranteed lower bounds of functional type (minorants) for two different cost functionals subject to a parabolic time-periodic boundary value problem. Together with previous results on upper bounds (majorants) for one of the cost functionals, both minorants and majorants lead to two-sided estimates of functional type for the optimal control problem. Both upper and lower bounds are derived for the second new cost functional subject to the same parabolic PDE-constraints, but where the target is a desired gradient. The time-periodic optimal control problems are discretized by the multiharmonic finite element method leading to lar…

La responsabilidad social como creadora de valor de marca: el efecto moderador de la atribución de objetivos
2013
ResumenLas iniciativas de responsabilidad social corporativa (RSC) pueden influir en el valor de marca de las empresas. Para ello, se requiere que estas iniciativas sean identificadas por el consumidor y que su comunicación proyecte un comportamiento motivado socialmente. En este trabajo se analizan estos 2 requisitos a través de un estudio empírico que analiza la relación entre la notoriedad de las iniciativas de responsabilidad social y el valor de marca, así como el efecto moderador de la atribución de objetivos de la empresa. Los resultados muestran que las acciones de RSC influyen positivamente sobre las 2 dimensiones del valor de marca, la actitud hacia la marca y la singularidad. Asi…
