Analysis of higher order difference method for a pseudo-parabolic equation with delay
WOS: 000504461100008In this paper, the author considers the one dimensional initial-boundary problem for a pseudo-parabolic equation with time delay in second spatial derivative. To solve this problem numerically, the author constructs higher order difference method and obtain the error estimate for its solution. Based on the method of energy estimates the fully discrete scheme is shown to be convergent of order four in space and of order two in time. Some numerical examples illustrate the convergence and effectiveness of the numerical method.Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey (TUBITAK)Turkiye Bilimsel ve Teknolojik Arastirma Kurumu (TUBITAK) [1059B191700821]This research was fully supported by Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey (TUBITAK) [grant number 1059B191700821].

Imaging of buried objects from experimental backscattering time dependent measurements using a globally convergent inverse algorithm
We consider the problem of imaging of objects buried under the ground using
backscattering experimental time dependent measurements generated by a single
point source or one incident plane wave. In particular, we estimate dielectric
constants of those objects using the globally convergent inverse algorithm of
Beilina and Klibanov. Our algorithm is tested on experimental data collected
using a microwave scattering facility at the University of North Carolina at
Charlotte. There are two main challenges working with this type of experimental
data: (i) there is a huge misfit between these data and computationally
simulated data, and (ii) the signals scattered from the targets may overlap
with and be dominated by the reflection from the ground's surface. To overcome
these two challenges, we propose new data preprocessing steps to make the
experimental data to be approximately the same as the simulated ones, as well
as to remove the reflection from the ground's surface. Results of total 25 data
sets of both non blind and blind targets indicate a good accuracy.Comment: 34 page

Numerical Study of a Plane Poiseuille Channel Flow of a Dielectric Liquid Subjected to Unipolar Injection
In this paper, the interaction between a plane Poiseuille channel flow and an
electroconvective movement induced by the electric field is numerically investigated. A
flow is generated by an inlet parabolic profile in a rectangular duct. Space charges are
injected in the flow through a metallic electrode placed on one of the channel walls and
brought to a given potential. Transient numerical simulations have been carried out to
investigate the structure of the flow. The entire set of the coupled Navier-Stokes and
EHD equations is solved using an efficient finite volume technique. The behavior of the
flow subjected to an applied voltage between the two electrodes is analyzed and time
evolution of the charge density distributions is presented. The interaction between the
convective movement induced by space charge injection and electric field and the
mainstream flow, emphasizes the appearance of periodic transverse traveling waves
convected in the channel. The dynamic of the flow through the variation of the ionic
mobility parameter M is investigated. For a given Reynolds number and ionoc mobility
parameter M it exists a threshold value Tc of the instability parameters T above which
the transverse traveling rolls appear or not. When T is increased, different flow regimes
have been highlighted starting from a complete steady state up to a fully unsteady
electro-plumes flow configuration

High performance computing of explicit schemes for electrofusion jointing process based on message-passing paradigm
The research focused on heterogeneous cluster workstations comprising of a number of CPUs in single and shared architecture platform. The problem statements under consideration involved one dimensional parabolic equations. The thermal process of electrofusion jointing was also discussed. Numerical schemes of explicit type such as AGE, Brian, and Charlies Methods were employed. The parallelization of these methods were based on the domain decomposition technique. Some parallel performance measurement for these methods were also addressed. Temperature profile of the one dimensional radial model of the electrofusion process were also given
