Glucose Regulation Using An Intelligent Pid Controller, Parker Willmon 2020 Louisiana Tech University

Glucose Regulation Using An Intelligent Pid Controller, Parker Willmon

Mathematics Senior Capstone Papers

Type 1 diabetes is a condition characterized by a lack of insulin production. This lack of insulin causes glucose concentration in the blood to increase after meals. In order to maintain blood glucose levels, diabetics must inject insulin using needles or an insulin pump. Additionally, the lack of insulin can cause glucose levels to decrease overnight. This project uses a proportional integral derivative (PID) controller to modify the rate of insulin and glucagon infusion when glucose levels are increasing or decreasing, respectively. A system of 13 differential equations were used to anticipate changes in glucose concentration as insulin and glucagon …


The Boundary Element Method For Parabolic Equation And Its Implementation In Bem++, Sihao Wang 2020 Southern Methodist University

The Boundary Element Method For Parabolic Equation And Its Implementation In Bem++, Sihao Wang

Mathematics Theses and Dissertations

The goal of this work is to develop a fast method for solving Galerkin discretizations of boundary integral formulations of the heat equation. The main contribution of this work is to devise a new fast algorithm for evaluating the dense matrices of the discretized integral equations.

Similar to the parabolic FMM, this method is based on a subdivision of the matrices into an appropriate hierarchical block structure. However, instead of an expansion of the kernel in both space and time we interpolate kernel in the temporal variables and use of the adaptive cross approximation (ACA) in the spatial variables.

A New Class Of Discontinuous Galerkin Methods For Wave Equations In Second-Order Form, Lu Zhang 2020 Southern Methodist University

A New Class Of Discontinuous Galerkin Methods For Wave Equations In Second-Order Form, Lu Zhang

Mathematics Theses and Dissertations

Discontinuous Galerkin methods are widely used in many practical fields. In this thesis, we focus on a new class of discontinuous Galerkin methods for second-order wave equations. This thesis is constructed by three main parts. In the first part, we study the convergence properties of the energy-based discontinuous Galerkin proposed in [3] for wave equations. We improve the existing suboptimal error estimates to an optimal convergence rate in the energy norm. In the second part, we generalize the energy-based discontinuous Galerkin method proposed in [3] to the advective wave equation and semilinear wave equation in second-order form. Energy-conserving or energy-dissipating …
