The hierarchical reconstruction (HR) [Liu, Shu, Tadmor and Zhang, SINUM ’07] has been successfully applied to prevent oscillations in solutions computed by finite volume, Runge-Kutta discontinuous Galerkin, spectral volume schemes for solving hyperbolic conservation laws. In this paper, we demonstrate that HR can also be combined with spectral/hp element method for solving hyperbolic conservati...

In this paper, vibration analysis of thick functionally graded beam with simply supported boundary condition under constant axial load is studied. The beam has a uniform cross-sectional area and the mechanical properties of the fungtionally graded beam are assumed to be vary through the thickness of the beam. Fundamental relations, the equilibrium and stability equations based on the displaceme...

We present a technique to animate amorphous materials such as fire, smoke and dust in real-time on graphics hardware with dedicated texture memory. Our method uses a coarse voxel grid to model object dynamics, and texture cycling to create local and global dynamics. Detail is added by encoding high-frequency components, which are normally spread uniformly throughout the volume, into the volume ...

In order to provide accurate heart rate variability indices of sympathetic and parasympathetic activity, the low frequency and high frequency components of an RR heart rate signal must be adequately separated. This is not always possible by just applying spectral analysis, as power from the high and low frequency components often leak into their adjacent bands. Furthermore, without the respirat...

This paper proposes a spectrum shaping technique exploiting frequency clipping for frequency domain soft canceller with minimum mean square error (FD-SC/MMSE) based turbo equalization systems, of which aims to achieve high spectral efficiency and efficient energy transfer from a transmitter to a receiver, as well as to provide a novel spectrum division multiplexing strategy. In the proposed sch...
