In the case of hyperbolic conservation laws, high-order methods, such as the classical DG method, experience the phenomenon of unwanted high-frequency oscillations in the vicinity of a shock. Shock-capturing methods such as artificial…
We propose that cycle expansions be ordered with respect to stability rather than orbit length for many chaotic systems, particularly those exhibiting crises. This is illustrated with the strong field Lorentz gas, where we obtain…
For a model of nonlinear elastodynamics, we construct a finite volume scheme which is able to capture nonclassical shocks (also called undercompressive shocks). Those shocks verify an entropy inequality but are not admissible in the sense…
A solution to a given equation is structurally stable if it suffers only an infinitesimal change when the equation (not the solution) is perturbed infinitesimally. We have found that structural stability can be used as a velocity selection…
In this paper, we'll answer several abstract, formal questions about the nature of crack growth and nucleation. Bringing a field theory point of view to fracture illuminates things in what I hope will be an entertaining way. Formally, what…
We present an extension to the robust phase estimation protocol, which can identify incorrect results that would otherwise lie outside the expected statistical range. Robust phase estimation is increasingly a method of choice for…
Radiative shock waves show a strong cooling instability at temperatures above approximately 2 times 10^5 K. We numerically investigate this instability by simulating different astronomical objects in which colliding flows play an…
A new relaxation approach is proposed which allows for the description of stress- and strain-softening at finite strains. The model is based on the construction of a convex hull replacing the originally non-convex incremental stress…
The residual cutting (RC) method has been proposed as an outer-inner loop iteration for efficiently solving large and sparse linear systems of equations arising in solving numerically problems of elliptic partial differential equations.…
In this paper, the generalized analytical solution for one dimensional adiabatic flow behind the strong imploding shock waves propagating in a non-ideal gas is obtained by using the geometrical shock dynamics theory. The equation of state…
We have developed a cosmic ray (CR) shock code in one dimensional spherical geometry with which the particle distribution, the gas flow and their nonlinear interaction can be followed numerically in a frame comoving with an expanding shock.…
C-type shocks are believed to be ubiquitous in turbulent molecular clouds thanks to ambipolar diffusion. We investigate whether the drag instability in 1D isothermal C-shocks, inferred from the local linear theory of Gu & Chen, can appear…
Recently, the phase field method has been increasingly used for brittle fractures in soft materials like polymers, elastomers, and biological tissues. When considering finite deformations to account for the highly deformable nature of soft…
Modern shock-capturing schemes often suffer from numerical shock anomalies if the flow field contains strong shocks, which may limit their further application in hypersonic flow computations. In the current study, we devote our efforts to…
The interaction of a shock wave with a localized constriction in a straight conduit is investigated by systematically varying the blockage ratio in the range 0.35-0.75, the normalized constriction length in the range 0.25-2, and the…
In this study, a new linear theory of tearing instability is shown, where the modified LSC (Loureiro, Schekochihin, and Cowley) theory [36] developed from the original LSC theory [8] is extended from inviscid-resistive MHD to…
We consider a general reaction--nonlinear-diffusion equation with a region of negative diffusivity, and show how a nonlinear regularisation selects a shock position. Negative diffusivity can model population aggregation, but leads to…
In this work we develop a new framework to deal numerically with discontinuous solutions in nonconservative hyperbolic systems. First an extension of the MOOD methodology to nonconservative systems based on Taylor expansions is presented.…
We investigate Runge-type approximation theorems for solutions to the 3D unsteady Stokes system. More precisely, we establish that on any compact set with connected complement, local smooth solutions to the 3D unsteady Stokes system can be…
Traditional fixed-depth architectures scale quality by increasing training FLOPs, typically through increased parameterization, at the expense of a higher memory footprint, or data. A potential alternative is looped architectures, which…
