Numerical Methods For Nonlinear Problems Using The Finite Element Method, Logan Price
Numerical Methods For Nonlinear Problems Using The Finite Element Method, Logan Price
Discovery Day - Daytona Beach
Numerical Methods for Nonlinear Problems Using the Finite Element Method is a computational mathematics capstone that builds and tests finite element method (FEM) workflows for nonlinear partial differential equations in FreeFEM++, with ParaView used for visualization. Two nonlinear model problems are used to demonstrate the approach. The first is a semilinear reaction-diffusion equation with a cubic nonlinearity. A manufactured solution is used so accuracy can be checked at a fixed final time, and refinement studies in both time step and mesh size are run while nonlinear iteration counts are tracked to show solver effort. The second problem is the steady …
Analytical And Numerical Solutions For The Hydrogen Atom, Kassidy Myers
Analytical And Numerical Solutions For The Hydrogen Atom, Kassidy Myers
Discovery Day - Daytona Beach
The Schrödinger equation is the foundational equation of non-relativistic quantum mechanics. The hydrogen atom is the simplest system for solving this equation, as it consists of only one proton and one electron. In this project, we work on the Schrödinger equation that models the spherically symmetric states of the hydrogen atom that depend only on the radial coordinate. We simplified and nondimensionalized the radial equation and solved the resulting equation using a power series (Frobenius) method. This approach revealed the physically meaningful solutions and led to quantized energy levels. In addition to finding the analytical solution, we numerically solve the …
(R2149) Heat, Hall, And Ion Slip Effects On Chemically Reacting Mhd Casson Flow Through Moving Surface, Gaurav Kumar, Vinod Kumar
(R2149) Heat, Hall, And Ion Slip Effects On Chemically Reacting Mhd Casson Flow Through Moving Surface, Gaurav Kumar, Vinod Kumar
Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)
The present investigation aims to analyze the combined effects of heat generation/absorption, Hall current, and ion slip on the flow of chemically reacting MHD Casson fluid over a moving vertical surface, considering ramped wall temperature and mass diffusion. The flow medium has been made porous. The analytical solution of the model's partial differential equations is derived using the Laplace transform technique aided by the Heaviside step function. The expressions for the Sherwood Number, Nusselt Number, and shear stress on the plate have been derived. The results obtained are found to be in outstanding agreement. The outcomes achieved are displayed through …
Safe Control Design For Quadruped Locomotion In Unstructured Environments Using Linear Transfer Operators, Sriram Sundar Krishnamoorthy Shankara Narayanan
Safe Control Design For Quadruped Locomotion In Unstructured Environments Using Linear Transfer Operators, Sriram Sundar Krishnamoorthy Shankara Narayanan
All Dissertations
Deploying quadruped robots in unstructured, obstacle-rich environments requires control and planning methods that remain safe and reliable despite complex terrain geometry, limited sensing, and inevitable modeling errors. This thesis develops operator-theoretic tools for safe control design of robotic systems using linear transfer operators, with a focus on quadruped locomotion in unstructured environments. The central goal is to develop a unified operator-theoretic framework for safe control design based on the Perron–Frobenius (P–F) and Koopman operators. In particular, the thesis leverages \emph{density functions} to develop safe navigation frameworks in the dual space of densities. In the operator-theoretic perspective, the P–F operator governs …
Making Mathematical Art Via The Harmonic And Perturbed Harmonic Functions, Mehmet Pakdemirli
Making Mathematical Art Via The Harmonic And Perturbed Harmonic Functions, Mehmet Pakdemirli
Journal of Humanistic Mathematics
Starting from the definition of a harmonic function series, we define a new series which we call the perturbed harmonic function series. We explore the relationship of the new series with the Weierstrass and Riemann fractal functions as well as its convergence and differentiability properties. We then illustrate the potential of the harmonic functions in generating complex figures that sometimes resemble natural objects, with explicit numerical examples.
