Logarithmic Barrier Method Via Minorant Function for Linear Semidefinite Programming
We propose in this study, a new logarithmic barrier approach to solve linear semidefinite programming problem. We are interested in computation of the direction by Newton’s method and of the displacement step using minorant functions instead of line ...

Dielectric barrier discharge-based defect engineering method to assist flash sintering
Oxygen vacancy OV plays an important role in a flash sintering (FS) process. In defect engineering, the methods of creating oxygen vacancy defects include doping, heating, and etching, and all of them often have complex processes or equipment.

Performance of T-shape barriers with top surface covered with absorptive quadratic residue diffusers [PDF]
A previous paper [Applied Acoustics 66 (2005) 709–730] has shown that adding a quadratic residue diffuser (QRD) to the top of a T-shape barrier can provide better barrier performance than an equivalent purely absorptive barrier.

Calculating Single-Channel Permeability and Conductance from Transition Paths [PDF]
Permeability and conductance are the major transport properties of membrane channels, quantifying the rate of channel crossing by the solute. It is highly desirable to calculate these quantities in all-atom molecular dynamics simulations. When the solute

Efficient Lattice Method for Valuing of Options with Barrier in a Regime Switching Model
We propose an efficient lattice method for valuation of options with barrier in a regime switching model. Specifically, we extend the trinomial tree method of Yuen and Yang (2010) by calculating the local average of prices near a node of the lattice. The

The influence of polarization on properties of the potential barrier at metal-ferroelectric interface [PDF]
The barrier properties of a capacitor heterostructure based on a ferroelectric lead zirconate-titanate were investigated by using the methods of current-voltage and voltage-capacitance characteristics.

Microscopic Determinations of Fission Barriers, (MEAN-Field and Beyond) [PDF]
With a help of the selfconsistent Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov (HFB) approach with the D1S effective Gogny interaction and the Generator Coordinate Method (GCM) we incorporate the transverse collective vibrations to the one-dimensional model of the fission ...
