Linear Stability Analysis With Solution Patterns Due To Varying Thermal Diffusivity For A Convective Flow In A Porous Medium, Dambaru Bhatta Dec 2018

Linear Stability Analysis With Solution Patterns Due To Varying Thermal Diffusivity For A Convective Flow In A Porous Medium, Dambaru Bhatta

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

Here we investigate the effect of the vertical rate of change in thermal diffusivity due to a hydrothermal convective flow in a horizontal porous medium. The continuity equation, the heat equation and the momentum-Darcy equation constitute the governing system for the flow in a porous medium. Assuming a vertically varying basic state, we derive the linear system and from this linear system, we compute the critical Rayleigh and wave numbers. Using fourth-order Runge-Kutta and shooting methods, we obtain the marginal stability curves and linear solutions to analyze the solution pattern for different diffusivity parameters.

Numerical Study Of Singular And Delta Shock Solutions Using A Large Time Step Method, Ilija Jegdic Dec 2018

Numerical Study Of Singular And Delta Shock Solutions Using A Large Time Step Method, Ilija Jegdic

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

We illustrate recently proposed large time step method for hyperbolic conservation laws. In the scalar case, it was proved earlier that if the approximate solutions converge boundedly, then they converge to the entropy solution. The main goal of this paper is to consider the large time step method for several systems of hyperbolic conservation laws. We compute approximate solutions to Riemann problems for three genuinely nonlinear one-dimensional systems (the Keyfitz-Kranzer system, the isentropic generalized Chaplygin gas dynamics equations, and the isentropic gas dynamics equations for polytropic gases with vanishing pressure). Besides approximating solutions that contain shocks and rarefaction waves, the …

A Normal Form For Words In The Temperley-Lieb Algebra And The Artin Braid Group On Three Strands, Jack Hartsell Dec 2018

A Normal Form For Words In The Temperley-Lieb Algebra And The Artin Braid Group On Three Strands, Jack Hartsell

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The motivation for this thesis is the computer-assisted calculation of the Jones poly- nomial from braid words in the Artin braid group on three strands, denoted B3. The method used for calculation of the Jones polynomial is the original method that was created when the Jones polynomial was first discovered by Vaughan Jones in 1984. This method utilizes the Temperley-Lieb algebra, and in our case the Temperley-Lieb Algebra on three strands, denoted A3, thus generalizations about A3 that assist with the process of calculation are pursued.

The Compensation For Few Clusters In Clustered Randomized Trials With Binary Outcomes, Lily Stalter Nov 2018

The Compensation For Few Clusters In Clustered Randomized Trials With Binary Outcomes, Lily Stalter

Mathematics & Statistics ETDs

Cluster randomized trials are increasingly popular in epidemiological and medical research. When analyzing the data from such studies it is imperative that the hierarchical structure of the data be taken into account. Multilevel logistic regression is used to analyze clustered data with binary outcomes. Previous literature shows that a greater number of clusters is more important than a large number of subjects per cluster. This paper investigates if it is possible to compensate for the increased bias found for parameter estimates when the number of clusters is decreased. A simulation study was conducted where the absolute percent relative bias for …

Divisibility In The Stone-Cech Compactification Of N, Salahddeen Khalifa Nov 2018

Divisibility In The Stone-Cech Compactification Of N, Salahddeen Khalifa

Dissertations

Let S a discrete semigroup. The associative operation on S extends naturally to an associative operation on βS,the Stone Cech compactification of S. This involves both topology and algebra and leads us to think how to extend properties and operations that are defined on S to βS. A good application of this is the extension of relations and divisibility operations that are defined on the discrete semigroup of natural numbers (N,.) with multiplication as operation to relations and divisibility operations that are defined on (βN,?) where (?) is the extension of the operation (.). In this research I studied extending …
