We present a Python module named PyCheb, to solve the ordinary differential equations by using spectral collocation method. PyCheb incorporates discretization using Chebyshev points, barycentric interpolation and iterate methods. With this Python module, users can initialize the ODEsolver class by passing attributes, including the both sides of a given differential equation, boundary conditions...

A reduction method is presented for systems of conservation laws with boundary energy flow. It is stated as a generalized pseudo-spectral method which performs exact differentiation by using simultaneously several approximation spaces generated by polynomials bases and suitable choices of port-variables. The symplecticity of this spatial reduction method is proved when used for the reduction of...

Due to an increase in number of geostationary spacecraft and limits imposed by east-west spacing requirements, the geostationary orbit is becoming congested. To increase its capacity, this paper proposes to create new geostationary slots by displacing the geostationary orbit either out of or in the equatorial plane by means of hybrid solar sail and solar electric propulsion. To minimize propell...

Mathematical morphology offers popular image processing tools, successfully used for binary and grayscale images. Recently, its extension to color images has become of interest and several approaches were proposed. Due to various issues arising from the vectorial nature of the data, none of them imposed as a generally valid solution. We propose a probabilistic pseudo-morphological approach, by ...

A spectral solution of the RLW equation based on collocation method using Chebyshev polynomials as a basis for the approximate solution is proposed. Test problems, including the motion of a single solitary wave with different amplitudes are used to validate this algorithm which is found to be more accurate than previous ones. The interaction of solitary waves is used to discuss the effect of th...

In this paper, we investigate the performance of pseudo-spectral methods in computing nearly singular solutions of fluid dynamics equations. We consider two different ways of removing the aliasing errors in a pseudo-spectral method. The first one is the traditional 2/3 dealiasing rule. The second one is a high (36th) order Fourier smoothing which keeps a significant portion of the Fourier modes...
