چکیده

A canal surface is an envelope of a one parameter family of spheres. In this paper we present an efficient algorithm for computing the implicit equation of a canal surface generated by a rational family of spheres. By using Laguerre and Lie geometries, we relate the equation of the canal surface to the equation of a dual variety of a certain curve in 5-dimensional projective space. We define the μ-basis for arbitrary dimension and give a simple algorithm for its computation. This is then applied to the dual variety, which allows us to deduce the implicit equations of the the dual variety, the canal surface and any offset to the canal surface.

شبیه‌سازی عددی اندرکنش موج با یک واحد نیروگاهی ستون نوسان‌گر آب در فضای دو‌بعدی قائم

A numerical model has been introduced to simulate wave interaction with oscillating water column (OWC) in two dimensional vertical plane. Two-dimensional Navier-stokes equations have been used. To track free surface, Volume of fluid method has been employed. Also a porous wall is situated at the beginning of the canal to absorb the reflected waves. It’s valuable to mention that the Poisson equa...

High-accuracy alternating segment explicit-implicit method for the fourth-order heat equation

Based on a group of new Saul’yev type asymmetric difference schemes constructed by author, a high-order, unconditionally stable and parallel alternating segment explicit-implicit method for the numerical solution of the fourth-order heat equation is derived in this paper. The truncation error is fourth-order in space, which is much more accurate than the known alternating segment explicit-impli...

An Implicit Difference-ADI Method for the Two-dimensional Space-time Fractional Diffusion Equation

Fractional order diffusion equations are generalizations of classical diffusion equations which are used to model in physics, finance, engineering, etc. In this paper we present an implicit difference approximation by using the alternating directions implicit (ADI) approach to solve the two-dimensional space-time fractional diffusion equation (2DSTFDE) on a finite domain. Consistency, unconditi...
