  1. 11. Multiscale Modeling in Systems Biology : Methods and Perspectives

    Author : Adrien Coulier; Andreas Hellander; Mark Chaplain; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; computational systems biology; high performance computing; Bayesian inference; stochastic simulation; cell mechanics; Scientific Computing; Beräkningsvetenskap;

    Abstract : In the last decades, mathematical and computational models have become ubiquitous to the field of systems biology. Specifically, the multiscale nature of biological processes makes the design and simulation of such models challenging. READ MORE

  2. 12. Analysis and Implementation of Preconditioners for Prestressed Elasticity Problems : Advances and Enhancements

    Author : Ali Dorostkar; Maya Neytcheva; Thomas Huckle; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; FEM; Saddle point matrix; Preconditioning; Schur complement; Generalized Locally Toeplitz; Prestressed elasticity; Scientific Computing; Beräkningsvetenskap;

    Abstract : In this work, prestressed elasticity problem as a model of the so-called glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) process is studied. The model problem is described by a set of partial differential equations (PDE) and discretized with a mixed finite element (FE) formulation. READ MORE

  3. 13. Developments in preconditioned iterative methods with application to glacial isostatic adjustment models

    Author : Ali Dorostkar; Maya Neytcheva; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Scientific Computing; Beräkningsvetenskap;

    Abstract : This study examines the block lower-triangular preconditioner with element-wise Schur complement as the lower diagonal block applied on matrices arising from an application in geophysics. The element-wise Schur complement is a special approximation of the exact Schur complement that can be constructed in the finite element framework. READ MORE

  4. 14. Adaptive Solvers for High-Dimensional PDE Problems on Clusters of Multicore Processors

    Author : Magnus Grandin; Sverker Holmgren; Michael Thuné; Michael Bader; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; adaptive mesh refinement; anisotropic refinement; exponential integrators; Lanczos algorithm; hybrid parallelization; time-dependent Schrödinger equation; Scientific Computing; Beräkningsvetenskap;

    Abstract : Accurate numerical solution of time-dependent, high-dimensional partial differential equations (PDEs) usually requires efficient numerical techniques and massive-scale parallel computing. In this thesis, we implement and evaluate discretization schemes suited for PDEs of higher dimensionality, focusing on high order of accuracy and low computational cost. READ MORE

  5. 15. Towards an adaptive solver for high-dimensional PDE problems on clusters of multicore processors

    Author : Magnus Gustafsson; Sverker Holmgren; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Scientific Computing; Beräkningsvetenskap;

    Abstract : Accurate numerical simulation of time-dependent phenomena in many spatial dimensions is a challenging computational task apparent in a vast range of application areas, for instance quantum dynamics, financial mathematics, systems biology and plasma physics. Particularly problematic is that the number of unknowns in the governing equations (the number of grid points) grows exponentially with the number of spatial dimensions introduced, often referred to as the curse of dimensionality.
