Parallel multigrid method for finite element simulations of complex flow problems on locally refined meshes

We present a parallel multigrid solver on locally refined meshes for solving very complex three‐dimensional flow problems. Besides describing the parallel implementation in detail, we prove the smoothing property of the suggested iteration for a simple model problem. For demonstration of the efficiency and feasibility of the solver, we show a chemically reactive flow simulation for a Methane burner using detailed chemical reaction modeling. Further, we give the results of an ocean flow simulation. All described methods are implemented in the finite element toolbox Gascoigne. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Nonstationary Gabor frames for

Recently, continuous‐time nonstationary Gabor (NSG) frames were introduced in adaptive signal analysis. They allow for efficient reconstruction with flexible sampling and varying window functions. In this paper, we focus on the existence and construction of NSG frames in the discrete‐time setting. We provide existence results for painless NSG frames and for NSG frames with fast decaying window functions. We also construct NSG frames with noncompactly supported window functions from a known painless NSG frame. Some examples are provided to illustrate the general theory.

Stabilization of novel multi-layer networks with noise-based nonlinear superior couplings via aperiodically adaptive intermittent pinning control

In this paper, novel multi-layer networks with superior couplings are proposed firstly which are established on a non-strongly connected digraph. Within the multi-layer networks, a nonlinear coupling based on white noises is introduced, which is the feature of superior couplings. We adopt aperiodically adaptive intermittent pinning control to stabilize the multi-layer networks. An concrete analysis framework about selecting the target vertex of the control is revealed. Aperiodically adaptive intermittent control is employed on the vertex systems of the first layer networks, to achieve the stabilization of the first layer networks, where the couplings of drift terms are treated as negative effects on stabilization. With the help of noise stabilization, the stabilization of the other layers networks is realized based on the stability of the first layer networks and the characteristics of the superior coupling that is based on white noises. By employing graph theory and the Lyapunov method, an almost sure exponential stabilization criterion of the multi-layer networks is acquired. As a subsequent result, the proposed theory is applied to a class of stochastic coupled oscillators with sufficient conditions being given to ensure their stability. Finally, a numerical example is provided to illustrate the feasibility of the stated theoretical results.     

Adaptive optics in astronomy

Since Galileo’s first observations in 1609, telescopes have grown dramatically in size. Larger telescopes collect more light, allowing astronomers to detect fainter sources and to look further back in time towards the birth of the universe. The angular resolution of these telescopes, however, has been limited by turbulence in the earth’s atmosphere. This limitation can be dramatically reduced with the use of adaptive optics (AO) to measure and correct the blurring introduced by atmospheric turbulence. AO is now routinely used for science observations on the world’s largest telescopes and is providing a much more detailed view of our universe.

Capability of a Liquid-Crystal Adaptive Optics System Based on Feedback Interferometry for Retinal Imaging

A modified arrangement of the adaptive optical retinal imaging system that we described previously is proposed to reduce the intensity loss in the system, so that it works properly even when the intensity of light incident on the eye is very weak. Experiments to verify the system performance were conducted using a conventional artificial eye with a specular reflector as a model retina. We observed that an image of a test target (mimicking a retina) blurred by an aberration plate (mimicking the ocular aberrations) was successfully restored in the adaptive optics fashion even when the intensity of the incident light probing the aberration of the eye became about 1.5% of that required in the previous system. Effect of a more realistic artificial eye with a scattering object as a model retina was also examined experimentally. We found that not only the ocular aberrations, but also the retinal scattering cause the wave-front deformations and that our adaptive optics system compensates for both of them simultaneously.
