On Bending in the As‐Rigid‐As‐Possible Deformation Energy

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract The well‐established As‐Rigid‐As‐Possible (ARAP) energy has various forms. For surface deformation, commonly used energies contain an implicit bending penalty. We present a natural, continuous generalization that incorporates multiple ARAP versions with an implicit, user‐controllable bending penalty.

Midpoint Derivative-Based Closed Newton-Cotes Quadrature

Abstract and Applied Analysis, 2013
A novel family of numerical integration of closed Newton-Cotes quadrature rules is presented which uses the derivative value at the midpoint. It is proved that these kinds of quadrature rules obtain an increase of two orders of precision over the ...

Comparison of Mesoscale Crack Advance and Process Zone Element Approaches for Simulating Ductile Crack Trajectories in Steel

Fatigue &Fracture of Engineering Materials &Structures, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rigorous application of continuum damage mechanics (CDM) models coupled with crack propagation schemes can predict crack branching or zigzag trajectories near the crack tip, even when the macroscopic crack growth is straight. This arises from oscillations in the local damage field and is consistent with experimental observations of ductile ...

Quadrature formulas for integral equations of kinetics and digital reactimeters

Nuclear Energy and Technology, 2017
The aim of this work is to derive quadrature formulas for nuclear reactor kinetic equations in the form of Volterra integral equations of the second kind and reactimeter equations in the form of integral convolution, the kernel of which is a decay ...

Quadrature formula for computed tomography

Journal of Approximation Theory, 2010
The authors present a Gaussian quadrature formula for integrals of the form \[ \int_B f(x,y) U_n(x\cos\theta+y\sin\theta)\,dx\,dy \] over the unit disk \(B\) for the Chebyshev polynomials \(U_n\) of second kind. The formula involves \(n\) Radon projections on \(B\), has the maximal degree \(3n+1\) of precision, and is unique by this property. It may be

Appraisal of Six Natural Mica Reference Materials for In Situ Rb‐Sr Geochronology

Geostandards and Geoanalytical Research, EarlyView.
Key Points Evaluated six natural mica reference materials for in situ LA‐ICP‐MS/MS Rb‐Sr geochronology using geochemical, microstructural and isotopic characterisation. Identified robust primary reference materials: Mount Dromedary biotite (99.37 Ma) and Mica‐Fe biotite (307.75 Ma). La Posta biotite and Högsbo muscovite are suitable secondary reference

Specification Tests for Jump‐Diffusion Models Based on the Characteristic Function

International Statistical Review, EarlyView.
Summary Goodness‐of‐fit tests are suggested for several popular jump‐diffusion processes. The suggested test statistics utilise the marginal characteristic function of the model and its L2‐type discrepancy from an empirical counterpart. Model parameters are estimated either by minimising the aforementioned L2‐type discrepancy or by maximum likelihood ...

The Evolution of Interest‐Rate Models: From the Yield Curve to the Swaption Cube

Journal of Economic Surveys, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Interest‐rate modelling is often taught as a catalogue of competing stochastic equations, obscuring why models were created and why modern sell‐side desks use several simultaneously. This survey reorganises the field around five layers of a pricing architecture: curve construction; arbitrage‐free dynamics; volatility‐smile representation ...

On the composite Bernstein type quadrature formula

Journal of Numerical Analysis and Approximation Theory, 2010
Considering a given function \(f\in C[0,1]\), the interval \([0,1]\) is divided in \(m\) equally spaced subintervals \(\left[\tfrac{k-1}{m},\tfrac{k}{m}\right]\), \(k=\overline{1,m}\).

Two-Point Quadrature Rules for Riemann–Stieltjes Integrals with Lp–error estimates

Moroccan Journal of Pure and Applied Analysis, 2018
In this work, we construct a new general two-point quadrature rules for the Riemann–Stieltjes integral ∫abf(t) du (t)$\int_a^b {f(t)} \,du\,(t)$, where the integrand f is assumed to be satisfied with the Hölder condition on [a, b] and the integrator u is
