In this article we define a surface finite element method (SFEM) for the numerical solution of parabolic partial differential equations on hypersurfaces Γ in ℝn+1. The key idea is based on the ...

A finite element method is developed for approximating the solution of the Dirichlet problem for the biharmonic operator, as a canonical example of a higher order elliptic boundary value problem. The ...

Finding new materials with useful properties is a primary goal for materials scientists, and it's central to improving technology. One exciting area of current research is 2D materials—super ...

Researchers created a predictive method to identify 2D materials with ferroelectric and magnetic properties, uncovering 83 candidates for advanced electronics.

I also imagine adding a fan into the equation would make it even more effective. So, if you’ve been lying awake for hours, sweating and sweltering, it’s worth giving the Egyptian Sleep Method ...

Rare earth elements sustain the Information Age, and securing a supply of these metals has become a matter of national and economic security. They're ubiquitous in our smart technologies, high ...

Florida wants you to kill as many of the invasive Burmese pythons as you can during the 10-days contest in July. But you can't shoot them.

This article presents an edge-based smoothed finite element method (ES-FEM) aiming to enhance the accuracy of magnetic field simulations in permanent magnet motors (PMMs). ES-FEM constructs cross-mesh ...

Since subsurface structures are often anisotropic, conventional anisotropic acoustic wave-equation depth migration methods are generally limited to one-way wave equations. In contrast, two-way ...

Stay cool and safe during this heat wave with these tried-and-true essentials.
