Implicit integration methods have contributed to large performance enhancements in the field of simulation of particle-system mechanical models. While Backward Euler and BDF-2 methods are now widely used for cloth simulation applications, the Implicit Midpoint method is often overlooked, because of its poor stability properties. It is however as simple to implement as Backward Euler, and offers...

We have developed a structured adaptive mesh refinement (SAMR) method for parabolic partial differential equation (PDE) systems. Solutions are calculated using the finite-difference or finite-volume method in space and backward differentiation formula (BDF) integration in time. The combination of SAMR in space and BDF in time is designed for problems where the fine-scale profile of sharp fronts...

Veratridine modification of Na current was examined in single dissociated ventricular myocytes from late-fetal rats. Extracellularly applied veratridine reduced peak Na current and induced a noninactivating current during the depolarizing pulse and an inward tail current that decayed exponentially (tau = 226 ms) after repolarization. The effect was quantitated as tail current amplitude, Itail (...

We deal with the numerical simulation of a motion of viscous compressible fluids. We discretize the governing Navier–Stokes equations by the backward difference formula – discontinuous Galerkin finite element (BDF-DGFE) method, which exhibits a sufficiently stable, efficient and accurate numerical scheme. The BDF-DGFE method requires a solution of one linear algebra system at each time step. In...

The time discretisation of the initial-value problem for a first-order evolution equation by the two-step backward differentiation formula (BDF) on a uniform grid is analysed. The evolution equation is governed by a time-dependent monotone operator that might be perturbed by a time-dependent strongly continuous operator. Well-posedness of the numerical scheme, a priori estimates, convergence of...

ABSTRACT We show herein that the population of star-forming galaxies in Bremer Deep Field (BDF) has enough ionizing power to form two large ionized bubbles could be process merging into a one with volume 14 000 cMpc3. The sources identified BDF have been completed set expected low-luminosity at z ∼ 7. estimated number photons per second produced by different BDF. This compared would required io...

INTRODUCTION Previous studies have demonstrated the potential of solvatochromic dyes for investigating the physical chemistry of homeopathic potencies. RESULTS Following examination of this class of dyes in organic solvents, results obtained using the positively solvatochromic dye Bis-dimethylaminofuchsone (BDF) in aqueous solution are now reported. Spectral changes observed with this dye in ...

In Indian traditional medicine, Boerhaavia diffusa (punarnava) roots have been widely used for the treatment of dyspepsia, jaundice, enlargement of spleen, abdominal pain and as an anti-stress agent. Pharmacological evaluation of the crude ethanolic extract of B. diffusa roots has been shown to possess antiproliferative and immunomodulatory properties. The extract of B. diffusa was studied for ...

This paper presents a novel Bayesian Discriminating Features (BDF) method for multiple frontal face detection. The BDF method, which is trained on images from only one database, yet works on test images from diverse sources, displays robust generalization performance. The novelty of this paper comes from the integration of the discriminating feature analysis of the input image, the statistical ...
