  1. 21. Numerical simulation of solitons in the nerve axon using finite differences

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Avdelningen för beräkningsvetenskap

    Author : Jonatan Werpers; [2014]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : A High-order accurate finite difference scheme is derived for a non-linear soliton model of nerve signal propagation in axons. Boundary conditions yielding well-posed problems are suggested and included in the scheme using a penalty technique. READ MORE

  2. 22. Fourth order accurate numerical solution of the sine-Gordon equation : using the summation-by-parts simultaneous approximation term method

    University essay from Avdelningen för beräkningsvetenskap

    Author : David Jäderberg; Andreas Gådin; [2013]
    Keywords : sine-Gordon;

    Abstract : This project deals with creating a numerical solver of the sine-Gordon equation using the summation- by- parts and simultaneous approximation term method in combination with a finite difference time- stepping method as well as a Runge-Kutta time-stepping method. All implementations were done with fourth order accuracy and the theoretical work involved in deriving such a finite difference time-stepping method for the sine-Gordon equation is presented.

  3. 23. Applications of the perfectly matched layers in a discontinuous fluid media

    University essay from Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Author : Ali Dorostkar; [2012]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In this thesis we study the applications of the PML in a multi-layered media. The PML is constructed  for the scalar wave equation and the convergence and stability of the continuous problem is studied using the normal mode analysis. READ MORE

  4. 24. Efficient Wave Propagation in Discontinuous Media and Complex Geometry for Many-core Architectures

    University essay from Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Author : Tobias Skoglund; [2012]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : We present an accelerated numerical solver for the scalar wave equation using one and two GPUs. We consider complex geometry and study accuracy when performing the computation in both single and double precision. The method uses a high-order accurate approximation of the derivatives using summation-by-parts operators. READ MORE

  5. 25. Coupled High-Order Finite Difference and Unstructured Finite Volume Methods for Earthquake Rupture Dynamics in Complex Geometries

    University essay from Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Author : Ossian O'Reilly; [2011]
    Keywords : SBP summation-by-parts SAT simultaneous-approximation-term unstructured finite volume methods high order finite difference methods interface coupling earthquake rupture dynamics complex geometries;

    Abstract : The linear elastodynamic two-dimensional anti-plane stress problem, where deformations occur in only one direction is considered for one sided non-planar faults. Fault dynamics are modeled using purely velocity dependent friction laws, and applied on boundaries with complex geometry. READ MORE
