Numerical method using cubic B-spline for the heat and wave equation

In the present paper, the cubic B-splines method is considered for solving one-dimensional heat and wave equations. A typical finite difference approach had been used to discretize the time derivative while the cubic B-spline is applied as an interpolation function in the space dimension. The accuracy of the method for both equations is discussed. The efficiency of the method is illustrated by some test problems. The numerical results are found to be in good agreement with the exact solution.     

Space and time localization for the estimation of distributed parameters in a finite element model

In this paper we study the problem of estimating the possibly non-homogeneous material coefficients inside a physical system, from transient excitations and measurements made in a few points on the boundary. We assume there is available an adequate Finite Element (FEM) model of the system, whose distributed physical parameters must be estimated from the experimental data.We propose a space–time localization approach that gives a better conditioned estimation problem, without the need of an expensive regularization. Some experimental results obtained on an elastic system with random coefficients are given.     

Multi-category classifiers and sample width

In a recent paper, the authors introduced the notion of sample width for binary classifiers defined on the set of real numbers. It was shown that the performance of such classifiers could be quantified in terms of this sample width. This paper considers how to adapt the idea of sample width so that it can be applied in cases where the classifiers are multi-category and are defined on some arbitrary metric space.     

High Order Schemes for Resolving Waves: Number of Points per Wavelength

For energetic flows there are many advantages of high order schemes over low order schemes. Here we examine a previously unknown advantage. It is commonly thought that the number of points per wavelength in order to obtain a given error in a numerical approximation depends only on runtime and the order of the approximation. Using truncation error arguments and examples we will show that it is not a constant and depends also on the wavenumber. This dependence on the numerical order and wavenumber strongly favors high order schemes for use in flows which have significant energy in the high modes such at Rayleigh–Taylor and Richtmyer–Meshkov instabilities.

Investigation of point-to-point performance test of touch trigger probes on coordinate-measuring machines

A major factor contributing to the total measuring error of coordinate measuring machines (CMMs) is the performance of the probing sub-system. Probing test methods are typically used to detect errors due to the probing sub-system. The probe performance evaluation method specified in the ANSI B89 standard is investigated in this paper. The sampling plan associated in the probe performance evaluation was tested by using experimental probing data from a CMM. Research findings indicate that the performance of touch trigger probes is overestimated due to a systematic bias in the vertical direction of the best-fit reference ball center in the probe performance test. A two-latitude sampling plan synthesis method based on a pretravel model for touch trigger probes is proposed in this paper. The proposed method can be used to accurately identify the reference ball center in the performance test of touch trigger probes.     

Error Estimates for Semidiscrete Finite Element Approximations of the Stokes Equations Under Minimal Regularity Assumptions

Semidiscrete (spatially discrete) finite element approximations of the Stokes equations are studied in this paper. Properties of L ², H ¹ and H ^–1 projections onto discretely divergence-free spaces are discussed and error estimates are derived under minimal regularity assumptions on the solution.     

A consideration of the nature of work and the consequences for the human-oriented design of production and products

In this article, it is shown that human work can be understood as a process of creating order, and that order can be seen as a form of information. Since information can be considered as negative entropy, work is associated with energy consumption. Therefore, it is important to investigate the nature of human necessities in more detail in order to meet the desire for comfort through the efficient application of energy. Temporary increases of information cause accelerated increases in entropy. This explains the appearance of living organisms, and the historic development of increasingly complex technology. Through technical progress, repetitive human work is being replaced by automation, so that primarily creative work remains. Now the question arises of how much creative work a human can manage. In addition, one goal of automation should be the reduction of human errors, but in doing so, an optimal balance should be found between supporting the operator both during normal procedures and during unforeseen circumstances.
