The simulation of the store separation using the automatic coupling of dynamic equations with flow aerodynamics is addressed. The precision and cost (calculation time) were considered as comparators. The method used in the present research decreased the calculation cost while limiting the solution error within a specific and tolerable interval. The methods applied to model the aerodynamic force...

PURPOSE Both implicit time and amplitude of the cone-mediated electroretinographic (ERG) b-wave differ significantly between the C57BL/6JOlaHsd and 129S2/SvHsd inbred mouse strains. The purpose of this work was to undertake a quantitative genetics study to localize the gene or genes involved. METHODS Implicit time and amplitude of the a- and b-waves of the single-flash and flicker cone-mediat...

The long-time stability properties of a few multistep numerical schemes for the two-dimensional incompressible Navier–Stokes equations (formulated in vorticity-stream function) are investigated in this article. These semi-implicit numerical schemes use a combination of explicit Adams–Bashforth extrapolation for the nonlinear convection term and implicit Adams–Moulton interpolation for the visco...

This paper deals with the implementation of an efficient Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (ALE) formulation for the three dimensional finite element modeling of mode I self-similar dynamic fracture process. Contrary to the remeshing technique, the presented algorithm can continuously advance the crack with the one mesh topology. The uncoupled approach is employed to treat the equations. So, each t...

The incompressible Navier-Stokes equations are discretized in space and integrated in time by the method of lines and a semi-implicit method. In each time step a set of systems of linear equations has to be solved. The size of the time steps are restricted by stability and accuracy of the time-stepping scheme, and convergence of the iterative methods for the solution of the systems of equations...

Time-implicit schemes are attractive since they allow numerical time steps that are much larger than those permitted by the Courant-Friedrich-Lewy criterion characterizing time-explicit methods. This advantage comes, however, with a cost: the solution of a system of nonlinear equations is required at each time step. In this work, the nonlinear system results from the discretization of the hydro...
