    Bohmian trajectories and Klein's paradox

    Get PDF
    We compute the Bohmian trajectories of the incoming scattering plane waves for Klein's potential step in explicit form. For finite norm incoming scattering solutions we derive their asymptotic space-time localization and we compute some Bohmian trajectories numerically. The paradox, which appears in the traditional treatments of the problem based on the outgoing scattering asymptotics, is absent.Comment: 14 pages, 3 figures; minor format change

    identification of the best practicing and breakthrough technologies to support the European automotive industry. This three year project is coordinated by NAFEMS, the International Association for the Engineering Analysis Community. The author of this article holds the role of the technology leadership steering the project aim to identify the most promising potential breakthrough technologies of the future for the integration of simulation into the automotive development process. Breakthrough technologies in the context of AutoSIM project are novel or revolutionary technologies and procedures required to offer successful solutions to solve the engineering problems in the coming century. The project consortium – representatives of 32 Europe's leading automotive companies – was defining important technology topics with potential to become breakthrough technologies. After a brief introduction of topics which will battle challenges as forthcoming basic tendencies for CAE-simulation within the next years, some priorities for integration of CAE-simulation into the development process will picked out and are discussed in detail. Especially the early concept and layout phases in the product development process will be discussed in this context. The reason is seen that from today’s point of view several particular bottlenecks are evident during these phases. The purpose of these remarks is to address to the most effective methods, tools and techniques to support the integration of analysis into the development process in early phases the reader. Furthermore an elaboration of essential and specific consolidated terms and concepts is visualised. In connection with the description of the priorities, which can be localised on account of available bottlenecks at the same time, technological as well as organizational and methodical barriers become recognizable
