Formulation and test of an ice aggregation scheme for two-moment bulk microphysics schemes
2013
A simple formulation of aggregation for 2-moment bulk microphysical models is de-rived. The solution involves the evaluation of a double integral of the collection kernelweighted with the crystal size (or mass) distribution. This quantity is to be inserted intothe differential equation for the crystal number concentration which has classical form. The double integrals are evaluated numerically for log-normal size distributions overa large range of geometric mean masses. A polynomial fit of the results is given thatyields good accuracy. Various tests of the new parameterization are described: aggre-gation as stand-alone process, in a box-model, and in 2-D simulations of a cirrostratuscloud. …
Non-linear Local Polynomial Regression Multiresolution Methods Using $$\ell ^1$$-norm Minimization with Application to Signal Processing
2015
Harten’s Multiresolution has been developed and used for different applications such as fast algorithms for solving linear equations or compression, denoising and inpainting signals. These schemes are based on two principal operators: decimation and prediction. The goal of this paper is to construct an accurate prediction operator that approximates the real values of the signal by a polynomial and estimates the error using \(\ell ^1\)-norm in each point. The result is a non-linear multiresolution method. The order of the operator is calculated. The stability of the schemes is ensured by using a special error control technique. Some numerical tests are performed comparing the new method with…
FINITE ELEMENT RESOLUTION OF CONVECTION-DIFFUSION EQUATIONS WITH INTERIOR AND BOUNDARY LAYERS
1996
We present a new algorithm for the resolution of both interior and boundary layers present in the convection-diffusion equation in laminar regimes, based on the formulation of a family of polynomial-exponential elements. We have carried out an adaptation of the standard variational methods (finite element method and spectral element method), obtaining an algorithm which supplies non-oscillatory and accurate solutions. The algorithm consists of generating a coupled grid of polynomial standard elements and polynomial-exponential elements. The latter are able to represent the high gradients of the solution, while the standard elements represent the solution in the areas of smooth variation.
Bézier Solutions of the Wave Equation
2004
We study polynomial solutions in the Bezier form of the wave equation in dimensions one and two. We explicitly determine which control points of the Bezier solution at two different times fix the solution.
More limit cycles than expected in Liénard equations
2007
The paper deals with classical polynomial Lienard equations, i.e. planar vector fields associated to scalar second order differential equations x"+ f(x)x' + x = 0 where f is a polynomial. We prove that for a well-chosen polynomial f of degree 6, the equation exhibits 4 limit cycles. It induces that for n ≥ 3 there exist polynomials f of degree 2n such that the related equations exhibit more than n limit cycles. This contradicts the conjecture of Lins, de Melo and Pugh stating that for Lienard equations as above, with f of degree 2n, the maximum number of limit cycles is n. The limit cycles that we found are relaxation oscillations which appear in slow-fast systems at the boundary of classic…
A computational approximation for the solution of retarded functional differential equations and their applications to science and engineering
2021
<p style='text-indent:20px;'>Delay differential equations are of great importance in science, engineering, medicine and biological models. These type of models include time delay phenomena which is helpful for characterising the real-world applications in machine learning, mechanics, economics, electrodynamics and so on. Besides, special classes of functional differential equations have been investigated in many researches. In this study, a numerical investigation of retarded type of these models together with initial conditions are introduced. The technique is based on a polynomial approach along with collocation points which maintains an approximated solutions to the problem. Beside…
A Novel Computational Approach for Harmonic Mitigation in PV Systems with Single-Phase Five-Level CHBMI
2018
In this paper, a novel approach to low order harmonic mitigation in fundamental switching frequency modulation is proposed for high power photovoltaic (PV) applications, without trying to solve the cumbersome non-linear transcendental equations. The proposed method allows for mitigation of the first-five harmonics (third, fifth, seventh, ninth, and eleventh harmonics), to reduce the complexity of the required procedure and to allocate few computational resource in the Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) based control board. Therefore, the voltage waveform taken into account is different respect traditional voltage waveform. The same concept, known as “voltage cancelation”, used for single-…
Upper bounds for the zeros of ultraspherical polynomials
1990
AbstractFor k = 1, 2, …, [n2] let xnk(λ) denote the Kth positive zero in decreasing order of the ultraspherical polynomial Pn(λ)(x). We establish upper bounds for xnk(λ). All the bounds become exact when λ = 0 and, in some cases (see case (iii) of Theorem 3.1), also when λ = 1. As a consequence of our results, we obtain for the largest zero xn1(λ)0.. We point out that our results remain useful for large values of λ. Numerical examples show that our upper bounds are quite sharp.
Vanishing Abelian integrals on zero-dimensional cycles
2011
In this paper we study conditions for the vanishing of Abelian integrals on families of zero-dimensional cycles. That is, for any rational function $f(z)$, characterize all rational functions $g(z)$ and zero-sum integers $\{n_i\}$ such that the function $t\mapsto\sum n_ig(z_i(t))$ vanishes identically. Here $z_i(t)$ are continuously depending roots of $f(z)-t$. We introduce a notion of (un)balanced cycles. Our main result is an inductive solution of the problem of vanishing of Abelian integrals when $f,g$ are polynomials on a family of zero-dimensional cycles under the assumption that the family of cycles we consider is unbalanced as well as all the cycles encountered in the inductive proce…
Exact Voronoi diagram of smooth convex pseudo-circles: General predicates, and implementation for ellipses
2013
International audience; We examine the problem of computing exactly the Voronoi diagram (via the dual Delaunay graph) of a set of, possibly intersecting, smooth convex \pc in the Euclidean plane, given in parametric form. Pseudo-circles are (convex) sites, every pair of which has at most two intersecting points. The Voronoi diagram is constructed incrementally. Our first contribution is to propose robust and efficient algorithms, under the exact computation paradigm, for all required predicates, thus generalizing earlier algorithms for non-intersecting ellipses. Second, we focus on \kcn, which is the hardest predicate, and express it by a simple sparse $5\times 5$ polynomial system, which a…
