We discuss numerical schemes for various forms of the Landau–Lifshitz equation. A new simple projection method is introduced and is shown to be unconditionally stable. The advantages over other schemes are also demonstrated numerically.

This paper presents observations pertaining to elements of expressive visual design for computer music, focusing in particular on real-time integration of graphics and audio. Specific projects are presented as examples and case studies supporting a set of design principles. They range from “user-oriented” to “aesthetic” and additional observations. Examples are categorized into audio visualizat...

Fractional partial differential equations have been applied to many problems in physics, finance, and engineering. Numerical methods and error estimates of these equations are currently a very active area of research. In this paper we consider a fractional diffusion-wave equation with damping. We derive the analytical solution for the equation using the method of separation of variables. An imp...

This paper examines the stability and convergence of discretisa-tions of initial value p.d.e.'s using spatial discretisation followed by time integration with an explicit one-step method. A Cauchy integral representation is used to bound the growth in the discrete solution. New results are obtained regarding suucient conditions for both algebraic and strong stability. Suucient conditions are al...

This chapter is about numerical methods for a particular type of equation expressed as a matrix equality. The Lyapunov equation is the most common problem in the class of problems called matrix equations. Other examples of matrix equations: Sylvester equation, Stein equation, Riccati equation. Definition 4.0.1. Consider two square matrices A, W ∈ Rn×n. The problem to find a square matrix X ∈ Rn...

In this paper, a parareal method is proposed for the parallel-in-time integration of time-fractional differential equations (TFDEs). It is a generalization of the original parareal method, proposed for classic differential equations. To match the global feature of fractional derivatives, the new method has in the correction step embraced the history part of the solution. We provide a convergenc...
