A previously found definition of complexity for spherically symmetric fluid distributions [1], is extended to axially symmetric static sources. In this case there are three different complexity factors, defined in terms of three structure…

We study diffusion and mixing in different linear fluid dynamics models, mainly related to incompressible flows. In this setting, mixing is a purely advective effect which causes a transfer of energy to high frequencies. When diffusion is…

We propose an energy-optimized invariant energy quadratization method to solve the gradient flow models in this paper, which requires only one linear energy-optimized step to correct the auxiliary variables on each time step. In addition to…

We introduce a class of distributed nonlinear control systems, termed as the flow-tracker dynamics, which capture phenomena where the average state is controlled by the average control input, with no individual agent has direct access to…

We consider the problem of single-channel audio source separation with the goal of reconstructing $K$ sources from their mixture. We address this ill-posed problem with FLOSS (FLOw matching for Source Separation), a constrained generation…

Power distribution networks, especially in North America, are often unbalanced but are designed to keep unbalance levels within the limits specified by IEEE, IEC, and NEMA standards. However, rapid integration of unbalanced devices, such as…

Recent numerical results show that if a scalar is mixed by periodically forced turbulence, the average mixing rate is directly affected for forcing frequencies small compared to the integral turbulence frequency. We elucidate this by an…

Two primary scalar auxiliary variable (SAV) approaches are widely applied for simulating gradient flow systems, i.e., the nonlinear energy-based approach and the Lagrange multiplier approach. The former guarantees unconditional energy…

Many systems exhibit a mixture of continuous and discrete dynamics. We consider a family of mixed-integer non-convex non-linear optimisation problems obtained in discretisations of optimal control of such systems. For this family, a…

A new discrete-velocity model is presented to solve the three-dimensional Euler equations. The velocities in the model are of an adaptive nature---both the origin of the discrete-velocity space and the magnitudes of the discrete-velocities…

We consider the problem of finding optimal shapes of fluid domains. The fluid obeys the Navier--Stokes equations. Inside a holdall container we use a phase field approach using diffuse interfaces to describe the domain of free flow. We…

Consider a diffusion-free passive scalar $\theta$ being mixed by an incompressible flow $u$ on the torus $\mathbb{T}^d$. Our aim is to study how well this scalar can be mixed under an enstrophy constraint on the advecting velocity field.Our…

The uniform longitudinal flow is characterized by a linear longitudinal velocity field $u_x(x,t)=a(t)x$, where $a(t)={a_0}/({1+a_0t})$ is the strain rate, a uniform density $n(t)\propto a(t)$, and a uniform granular temperature $T(t)$.…

We study the fully mixed formulation of the Biot equations, which is characterized by a symmetric coupling between flow and deformation. This structure enables the use of stable mixed finite elements for each subproblem without a strong…

Scheduling the power exchange between a population of heterogeneous distributed energy resources and the corresponding upper-level system is an important control problem in power systems. A key challenge is the large number of (partially…

An extremely simple single-trace transmission example shows how an extended source formulation of full waveform inversion can produce an optimization problem without spurious local minima ("cycle skipping"). The data consist of a single…

We develop a mixture procedure for multi-sensor systems to monitor data streams for a change-point that causes a gradual degradation to a subset of the streams. Observations are assumed to be initially normal random variables with known…

There is a clear distinction between simple laminar and complex turbulent fluids. But in some cases, as for the nocturnal planetary boundary layer, a stable and well-ordered flow can develop intense and sporadic bursts of turbulent activity…

Diffusion models and their variations, such as rectified flows, generate diverse and high-quality images, but they are still hindered by slow iterative sampling caused by the highly curved generative paths they learn. An important cause of…

While flow matching is elegant, its reliance on single-sample conditional velocities leads to high-variance training targets that destabilize optimization and slow convergence. By explicitly characterizing this variance, we identify 1) a…
