Scaling Turbulent Combustion Fields in Explosions
We considered the topic of explosions from spherical high-explosive (HE) charges. We studied how the turbulent combustion fields scale. On the basis of theories of dimensional analysis by Bridgman and similarity theories of Sedov and Barenblatt, we found

Parts of the Whole: Error Estimation for Science Students
It is important for science students to understand not only how to estimate error sizes in measurement data, but also to see how these errors contribute to errors in conclusions they may make about the data. Relatively small errors in measurement, errors

An Introduction to Affine Arithmetic
Affine arithmetic (AA) is a model for self-validated computation which, like standard interval arithmetic (IA), produces guaranteed enclosures for computed quantities, taking into account any uncertainties in the input data as well as all internal ...

Computation of the inverse Laplace Transform based on a Collocation method which uses only real values [PDF]
We develop a numerical algorithm for inverting a Laplace transform (LT), based on Laguerre polynomial series expansion of the inverse function under the assumption that the LT is known on the real axis only.

On fully discrete collocation methods for solving weakly singular integral equations
A popular class of methods for solving weakly singular integral equations is the class of piecewise polynomial collocation methods. In order to implement those methods one has to compute exactly certain integrals that determine the linear system to be ...

Self-similar Singularity of a 1D Model for the 3D Axisymmetric Euler Equations [PDF]
We investigate the self-similar singularity of a 1D model for the 3D axisymmetric Euler equations, which is motivated by a particular singularity formation scenario observed in numerical computation.

Quantization in Control Systems and Forward Error Analysis of Iterative Numerical Algorithms [PDF]
The use of control theory to study iterative algorithms, which can be considered as dynamical systems, opens many opportunities to find new tools for analysis of algorithms.

Round-Off Error Suppression by Statistical Averaging
Regarding round-off errors as random is often a necessary simplification to describe their behavior. Assuming, in addition, the symmetry of their distributions, we show that one can, in unstable (ill-conditioned) computer calculations, suppress their ...

A Model for Understanding Numerical Stability
We present a model of roundoff error analysis that combines simplicity with predictive power. Though not considering all sources of roundoff within an algorithm, the model is related to a recursive roundoff error analysis and therefore capable of ...
