Blended General Linear Methods based on Boundary Value Methods in the Generalized BDF family

Issues 1-2 Volume 04

Keywords: Numerical methods for ordinary differential equations, General Linear Methods, Boundary Value Methods (BVMs), Generalized Backward Differentiation Formulae (GBDF), Blended Implicit Methods, blended iteration. Abstract: Among the methods for solving ODE-IVPs, the class of General Linear Methods (GLMs) is able to encompass most of them, ranging from Linear Multistep Formulae (LMF) to RK formulae. Moreover,

A Comparative Study of Mathematical Models with Two Transmission Modes for Hiv Dynamics And Treatment

Issues 3-4 Volume 12

NICOLETA E. TARFULEA DEPARTMENT OF MATHEMATICS, PURDUE UNIVERSITY NORTHWEST, USA Abstract. HIV can infect cells via cell-to-cell and virus-to-cell transmissions. These two types of transmission may occur in a combined way and enable viral spread. In this paper, we investigate analytically and numerically the influence of these two transmission modes, as well as the viral

BS Linear Multistep Methods on Non-uniform Meshes

Issues 1-2 Volume 01

Date of Online Publication: 26/08/2006 Keywords: Boundary Value Problems, Ordinary Differential Equations, B-Splines, Spline Collocation, Boundary Value Methods Authors: Francesca Mazzia, Alessandra Sestini and Donato Trigiante Pages: 131-144 BS methods are a special class of Linear Multistep Methods defined using B-spline functions. These methods are always convergent and have good stability properties when used as

New Variants of Deflation Techniques for Pressure Correction in Bubbly Flow Problems

Issues 3-4 Volume 02

Date of Online Publication: 27/10/2007 Keywords: deflation, conjugate gradient method, preconditioning, Poisson equation, symmetric positive semi-definite matrices, bubbly flow problems, level-set Authors: J.M. Tang, C. Vuik Pages: 227-249 For various applications, it is well-known that deflated ICCG is an efficient method to solve linear systems iteratively. This deflated ICCG can also be used to solve

Rate of convergence estimates for second order elliptic eigenvalue problems on polygonal domains using spectral element methods

Issues 1-2 Volume 09-10

Lokendra K. Balyana,1, Subir Singh Lambab a,bDepartment of Mathematics, IIIT-DM Jabalpur, India 1Corresponding author: E-mail: lokendra.balyan@gmail.com Abstract: In this paper, we present rate of convergence estimates for eigenvalues and eigenvectors of elliptic differential operators on non-smooth domains using non-conforming spectral element methods. We define a class of compact operators on Banach space which is used

Primitive Recursion and – Recursivity

Issues 3 Volume 01

Primitive Recursion and – – Recursivity Date of Online Publication: 22/12/2006 Keywords: Recursive Functions Theory, Mathematical Analysis, Automata Theory. Authors: A. Garrido Pages: 273-280 We analyze the different types of recursivity and their mutual relationships. Finally, we will use the Ackermann – Peter function to prove that the – recursivity does not imply the primitive
