SPECTRAL COLLOCATION METHODS FOR NONLOCAL PROBLEMS IN BOND-BASED PERIDYNAMIC MODELS
Peridynamics is a nonlocal theory generalizing elasticity theory able to model the spontaneous formation and the evolution of discontinuities in materials.

Chebyshev spectral collocation methods for nonlinear isothermal magnetostatic atmospheres
The equations of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equilibria for a plasma in gravitational field are investigated. For equilibria with one ignorable spatial coordinate, the MHD equations are reduced to a single nonlinear elliptic equation (NLPDE) for the ...

Reconstructing Old Chinese *‐ts Using Han‐Time Material
Abstract Baxter & Sagart (2014b) reconstruct *‐Vt‐s on the basis of Middle Chinese reflexes in ‐jH (from some OC *‐s) coupled with either etymological or graphic connections to words in Middle Chinese ‐t. This approach, while perfectly sound, can suffer from lack of etymological or graphic data, leading to missed reconstructions. Since Old Chinese *‐ts

Absorbing boundary conditions: a spectral collocation approach
We introduce a spectral collocation method for the discretization of the shallow water equations on a one dimensional semi-infinite domain, employing scaled Laguerre basis functions to obtain an accurate description of the solutions on finite regions of ...

Abstract This article argues that W. E. B. Du Bois grounded his seminal conceptualisation of “the Negro church” in a Pan‐Africanist challenge to how Christian reformers and missionaries' usage of “Darkest Africa” as a metaphor for modern urban vice and poverty denigrated Africa and the African diaspora while promoting a segregated, imperialist version ...

ABSTRACT How does the ability to weather insecurity give some an upper‐hand over others? This paper examines the interrelationship between housing and labour market precarity among middle class young professionals. Drawing on interviews with residents of co‐living schemes—for‐profit shared housing where tenants are on temporary rental contracts—it ...

Optimized Schwarz methods for Maxwell's equations
Over the last two decades, classical Schwarz methods have been extended to systems of hyperbolic partial differential equations, using characteristic transmission conditions, and it has been observed that the classical Schwarz method can be convergent ...

Looking at Us Through Their Eyes. The Analytical Process from Ethnographic Perspectives1
Abstract This article looks at the analytical situation through the Others’ eyes—through examples from contemporary ethnographies of foreign cultures. It discusses the following issues: a) The analogy between the ontological worlds of the dead, ghosts, animals and dreams in “primitive populations” and the analytical psychological descriptions of the ...

Countering FIMI by Digital Authoritarianisms: Audience Architecture and Reverse Language Engineering
ABSTRACT Foreign information manipulation and interference (FIMI) campaigns on social media are currently both more accessible and more impactful than the North Atlantic Treaty Organization's (NATO) or European Union's (EU), offering their opponents superiority and efficiency on those platforms.
