  1. 1. Numerical Methods for Wave Propagation : Analysis and Applications in Quantum Dynamics

    Författare :Emil Kieri; Sverker Holmgren; Vasile Gradinaru; Hans O. Karlsson; Tobias Jahnke; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; computational wave propagation; quantum dynamics; time-dependent Schrödinger equation; spectral methods; Gaussian beams; splitting methods; low-rank approximation; Scientific Computing; Beräkningsvetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : We study numerical methods for time-dependent partial differential equations describing wave propagation, primarily applied to problems in quantum dynamics governed by the time-dependent Schrödinger equation (TDSE). We consider both methods for spatial approximation and for time stepping. LÄS MER

    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; shape optimization; design optimization; acoustic wave propagation; Helmholtz equation; Boundary Element Method; Finite Element Method; inverse problems; adjoint method; gradient-based optimization; Scientific Computing; Beräkningsvetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : Boundary shape optimization is a technique to search for an optimal shape by modifying the boundary of a device with a pre-specified topology. We consider boundary shape optimization of acoustic horns in loudspeakers and brass wind instruments. LÄS MER

  4. 3. A Wave Expansion Method for Aeroacoustic Propagation

    Författare :Johan Hammar; Gunilla Efraimsson; Ciarán J. O'Reilly; Wim De Roeck; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Sound propagation; Sound generation; Aeroacoustics; Aerodynamics; Computational fluid dynamics; Computational aeroacoustics; Numerical methods; Lighthill; Curle; Ffowcs Williams and Hawkings; Frequency-domain propagation; Wave expansion method.; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Although it is possible to directly solve an entire flow-acoustics problem in one computation, this approach remains prohibitively large in terms of the computational resource required for most practical applications. Aeroacoustic problems are therefore usually split into two parts; one consisting of the source computation and one of the source propagation. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Summation-by-Parts Finite Difference Methods for Wave Propagation and Earthquake Modeling

    Författare :Vidar Stiernström; Ken Mattsson; Mark H. Carpenter; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Finite difference method; high-order accuracy; stability; summation-by-parts; wave propagation; earthquake modeling; inverse problems; Beräkningsvetenskap med inriktning mot numerisk analys; Scientific Computing with specialization in Numerical Analysis;

    Sammanfattning : Waves manifest in many areas of physics, ranging from large-scale seismic waves in geophysics down to particle descriptions in quantum physics. Wave propagation may often be described mathematically by partial differential equations (PDE). Unfortunately, analytical solutions to PDEs are in many cases notoriously difficult to obtain. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Finite Difference Methods for Time-Dependent Wave Propagation Problems

    Författare :Ylva Ljungberg Rydin; Ken Mattsson; Erik Sjöqvist; Magnus Svärd; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Finite differences; Wave propagation problems; Summation-by-parts; Simultaneous approximation term; High-order accuracy; Deforming domains; Point sources; Scientific Computing; Beräkningsvetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : Wave propagation models are essential in many fields of physics, such as acoustics, electromagnetics, and quantum mechanics. Mathematically, waves can be described by partial differential equations (PDEs).  In most cases, exact solutions to wave-dominated PDEs are nearly impossible to derive. LÄS MER
