We study a finite element approximation for the consistent splitting scheme proposed in [11] for the time dependent Navier-Stokes equations. At each time step, we only need to solve a Poisson type equation for each component of the velocity and the pressure. We cast the finite element approximation in an abstract form using appropriately defined discrete differential operators, and derive optim...

Radiation from monopole antennas on spherical-lossy earth is analyzed by the finitedifference time-domain (FDTD) method in spherical coordinates. A novel generalized perfectly matched layer (PML) has been developed for the truncation of the lossy soil. For having an accurate modeling with less memory requirements, an efficient "non-uniform" mesh generation scheme is used. Also in each time step...

A sequential implicit numerical scheme is proposed for a system of partial differential equations defining the transport of heat and mass in the channel flow of a variable-viscosity fluid. By adopting the backward difference scheme for time derivative and the central difference scheme for the spatial derivatives, an implicit finite difference scheme is formulated. The variable-coefficient diffu...

This paper presents a Godunov-type large time step (LTS) solver of the non-homogeneous shallow water equations (SWEs). Source terms are decomposed into simple characteristic waves in approximate Riemann solvers (ARS) and exact (ERS), information is transferred over multiple cells per using LTS method. Benchmark simulations presented different solution algorithms (ARS ERS with without entropy fi...

A hybrid censoring scheme is a mixture of type I and type II censoring schemes. When $n$ items are placed on a life test, the experiment terminates under type I or type II hybrid censoring scheme if either a pre-fixed censoring time T or the rth (1<=r<=n&nbsp;is fixed) failure is first or later observed, respectively. In this paper, we investigate the decomposition of entropy in both hybrid cen...

Abstract: The classical Simpson rule is an optimal fourth order two-step integration scheme for first-order initial-value problems; however, it is unconditionally unstable. An A-stabilized version of Simpson rule was given by Chawla et al [3] and an L-stable version was given by Chawla et al [2]. These rules are functionally implicit, and when applied for the time integration of nonlinear diffe...
