  2. 16. High Order Finite Difference Methods with Artificial Boundary Treatment in Quantum Dynamics

    Author : Anna Nissen; Gunilla Kreiss; Sverker Holmgren; Magnus Svärd; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Schrödinger equation; finite difference methods; perfectly matched layer; summation-by-parts operators; adaptive discretization; stability; Beräkningsvetenskap med inriktning mot numerisk analys; Scientific Computing with specialization in Numerical Analysis;

    Abstract : The investigation of the dynamics of chemical reactions, both from the theoretical and experimental side, has drawn an increasing interest since Ahmed H. Zewail was awarded the 1999 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his work on femtochemistry. READ MORE

  4. 17. Mass Conserving Simulations of Two Phase Flow

    Author : Elin Olsson; Gunilla Kreiss; Stig Larsson; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; free boundary; two phase flow; level set method; conservative; Numerical analysis; Numerisk analys;

    Abstract : Consider a mixture of two immiscible, incompressible fluids e.g. oil and water. Since the fluids do not mix, an interface between the two fluids will form and move in time. READ MORE
