Metrizability and Coconnectedness

Solving the problem stated in Sichler and Trnková, Topol. Its Appl., 142: 159–179, 2004, we construct metrics μ, ν on a set P such that the spaces X=(P,μ) and Y=(P,ν) have the same monoid of all continuous selfmaps, the space Y is coconnected (in the sense that every continuous map Y×Y→Y depends on at most one coordinate) while X is not. Also, properties of the forgetful functors Metr → Unif → Top are investigated for the “simultaneous variant” of the above problem.

Edgeworth Expansions for Studentized Versions of Symmetric Finite Population Statistics

We show the validity of the one-term Edgeworth expansion for Studentized asymptotically linear statistics based on samples drawn without replacement from finite populations. Replacing the moments defining the expansion by their estimators, we obtain an empirical Edgeworth expansion. We show the validity of the empirical Edgeworth expansion in probability.     

A segregated method for compressible flow computation. Part II: general divariant compressible flows

Typically, segregated methods have been used for the computation of incompressible flows whereas coupled solvers, for compressible flows. Compared to coupled solvers, segregated methods present the advantage of computational savings in RAM memory and CPU time, although at the cost of an inferior robustness. However, previously published segregated algorithms for general compressible flows are known to present pitfalls, like convergence to wrong solutions, lack of robustness in the presence of strong discontinuities, such as normal and oblique shocks, and complicated boundary condition imposition. Therefore, in this paper a segregated method for non‐isothermal compressible flows is proposed that preserves the thermodynamic coupling and overcomes the criticisms of existing methods.

CONVERGENCE OF IMPLICIT ITERATIVE PROCESS WITH ERRORS FOR A FINITE FAMILY OF ASYMPTOTICALLY NONEXPANSIVE MAPPINGS

The purpose of this article is to study the weak and strong convergence of implicit iteration process with errors to a common fixed point for a finite family of asymptotically nonexpansive mappings and nonexpansive mappings in Banach spaces. The results presented in this article extend and improve thecorresponding results of [1, 2, 4-9, 11-15].     

Finite element and implicit Runge–Kutta implementation of an acoustics–convection upstream resolution algorithm for the time‐dependent two‐dimensional Euler equations

The second of a two‐paper series, this paper details a solver for the characteristics‐bias system from the acoustics–convection upstream resolution algorithm for the Euler and Navier–Stokes equations. An integral formulation leads to several surface integrals that allow effective enforcement of boundary conditions. Also presented is a new multi‐dimensional procedure to enforce a pressure boundary condition at a subsonic outlet, a procedure that remains accurate and stable. A classical finite element Galerkin discretization of the integral formulation on any prescribed grid directly yields an optimal discretely conservative upstream approximation for the Euler and Navier–Stokes equations, an approximation that remains multi‐dimensional independently of the orientation of the reference axes and computational cells. The time‐dependent discrete equations are then integrated in time via an implicit Runge–Kutta procedure that in this paper is proven to remain absolutely non‐linearly stable for the spatially‐discrete Euler and Navier–Stokes equations and shown to converge rapidly to steady states, with maximum Courant number exceeding 100 for the linearized version. Even on relatively coarse grids, the acoustics–convection upstream resolution algorithm generates essentially non‐oscillatory solutions for subsonic, transonic and supersonic flows, encompassing oblique‐ and interacting‐shock fields that converge within 40 time steps and reflect reference exact solutions.

Optical manipulation of coupled spins in magnetic semiconductor systems: A path toward spin optoelectronics

Experimental results based on the optical excitations in the III–V-based ferromagnetic semiconductors are reviewed. On the bases of results obtained by both cw- and femto-second-pulse optical excitation, we point out the feasibility of magnetization rotation in the hole-mediated ferromagnetic semiconductor (Ga,Mn)As via the angular momentum and photon energy of light. Here, p–d exchange interaction is the effective channel that transmits a small change in spin axis of the valence band to the ferromagnetically coupled Mn spin sub-system. Within the limit of this picture, we also discuss a hole–Mn spin complex for which hole and Mn spins rotate and relax together upon optical excitation. Partial magnetization reversal observed in the experiments of the electrical current injection in (Ga,Mn)As-based magnetic-tunnel-junction devices is also reviewed in view of the effects caused by the spin-polarized holes. Here, we point out that a spin current of 10⁵ A/cm² may be reduced further if spin injection efficiency can be improved by the optimal designs of the device structure.     

Singular finite elements for the sudden-expansion and the die-swell problems

The singular finite element method is used to solve the sudden-expansion and the die-swell problems in order to improve the accuracy of the solution in the vicinity of the singularity and to speed up the convergence. The method requires minor modifications to standard finite element schemes, and even coarse meshes give more accurate results than refined ordinary finite element meshes. Improved normal stress results for the sudden-expansion problem have been obtained for various Reynolds numbers up to 100 using the singular elements constructed for the creeping flow problem. In addition, the normal stresses at the walls appear to be insensitive to the singularity powers used in the construction of the singular basis functions. The die-swell problem is solved using the singular elements constructed for the stick–slip problem. The singular elements accelerate the convergence of the free surface dramatically.     

Validation of adaptive unstructured hexahedral mesh computations of flow around a wind turbine airfoil

In this paper we investigate local adaptive refinement of unstructured hexahedral meshes for computations of the flow around the DU91 wind turbine airfoil. This is a 25% thick airfoil, found at the mid‐span section of a wind turbine blade. Wind turbine applications typically involve unsteady flows due to changes in the angle of attack and to unsteady flow separation at high angles of attack. In order to obtain reasonably accurate results for all these conditions one should use a mesh which is refined in many regions, which is not computationally efficient. Our solution is to apply an automated mesh adaptation technique. In this paper we test an adaptive refinement strategy developed for unstructured hexahedral meshes for steady flow conditions. The automated mesh adaptation is based on local flow sensors for pressure, velocity, density or a combination of these flow variables. This way the mesh is refined only in those regions necessary for high accuracy, retaining computational efficiency. A validation study is performed for two cases: attached flow at an angle of 6° and separated flow at 12°. The results obtained using our adaptive mesh strategy are compared with experimental data and with results obtained with an equally sized non‐adapted mesh. From these computations it can be concluded that for a given computing time, adapted meshes result in solutions closer to the experimental data compared to non‐adapted meshes for attached flow. Finally, we show results for unsteady computations. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
