The vector Boundary Element Method (vBEM) is used for the calculation of a matrix that links the tangential components of the current density on the cortical and scalp surface. This so-called transfer matrix is compared to the transfer matrix that links the potential distribution on both surfaces. Forward and inverse calculations are performed to evaluate both types of transfer matrices. Keywor...

I demonstrate that the short distance contribution to K → ππ decays must be supplemented with large distance effects. A hybrid calculation is outlined based on QCD diagrams supplemented by chiral contributions and π–π phaseshifts.

Introduction: Chondrite matrix is defined as 'the fine-grained, predominantly silicate, material intersti-tial to macroscopic, whole or fragmented, entities such as chondrules, inclusions and large isolated mineral (i.e., silicate, metal, sulphide and oxide) grains' [1]. Matrix materials are derived from a wide variety of sources: presolar grains, solar-nebular condensates, and finely ground li...

This paper presents an efficient technique for fast generation of sparse systems of linear equations arising in computational electromagnetics in a finite element method using higher order elements. The proposed approach employs a graphics processing unit (GPU) for both numerical integration and matrix assembly. The performance results obtained on a test platform consisting of a Fermi GPU (1x T...

We present a new tree-level matrix element generator, based on the colour dressed Berends-Giele recursive relations. We discuss two new algorithms for phase space integration, dedicated to be used with large multiplicities and colour sampling.

The performance of finite element computation depends strongly on the quality of the geometric mesh and the efficiency of the numerical solution of the linear systems resulting from the discretization of partial differential equation (PDE) models. It is common knowledge that mesh geometry affects not only the approximation error of the finite element solution but also the spectral properties of...
