This work introduces new functions based on the spherical harmonics and the solid harmonics which have been used to construct a multipole development for the 3D Stokes problem in order to reduce the operations costs in the BEM method. We show that the major properties of those functions are inherited from the solid harmonics. The contribution of this paper is the introduction of new formulas that serve to calculate the multipole moments and the transfer functions that are necessary for the schemes of orderO(NlogN). Moreover, new translation formulas are introduced to obtain anO(N)scheme. The error truncation of the resulting scheme is discussed. In comparison to the BEM that attains a limit storage atO(104), we present here a method based on FMM-BEM that attains a storage at a limit ofO(106). The implementation of the method achieves a high accuracy level at a reasonable cost.

In this work, a new and low-cost Arduino-Based Data Acquisition System (ABDAS) for use in an aerodynamics lab is developed. Its design is simple and reliable. The accuracy of the system has been checked by being directly compared with a commercial and high accuracy level hardware from National Instruments. Furthermore, ABDAS has been compared to the accredited calibration system in the IDR/UPM Institute, its measurements during this testing campaign being used to analyzed two different cup anemometer frequency determination procedures: counting pulses and the Fourier transform. The results indicate a more accurate transfer function of the cup anemometers when counting pulses procedure is used.

This paper describes a design of a fry counter intended to be used by consuming fish farmer. Along this time, almost all the fry counting process is counted by manual, which is done by a human. It is requiring much energy and needs high concentration; thus, can cause a high level of exhaustion for the fry counting worker. Besides that, the human capability and capacity of counting are limited to a low level. A fry counter design in this study utilizes a multi-channel optocoupler sensor to increase the counting capacity. The multi-channel fry counter counting system is developed as a solution to a limited capacity of available fry counter. This design uses an input signal extender system on controller including the interrupt system. From the experiment, high accuracy level is obtained on the counting and channel detection, therefore, this design can be implemented and could help farmers to increase the production capacity of consuming fish.

Among various modeling methods for DC-DC converters introduced in the past two decades, the state-space averaging (SSA) and the circuit averaging (CA) are the most general and popular exhibiting high accuracy. However, their deduction approaches are not entirely equivalent since they incorporate different averaging processes, thus yielding different small signal transfer functions even under identical operating conditions. Some research studies claimed that the improved SSA can obtain the highest accuracy among all the modeling methods, but this paper discovers and clearly verifies that this is not the case. In this paper, we first review and study these two modeling methods for various DC-DC converters operating in the discontinuous conduction mode (DCM). We also streamline the general model-deriving processes for DC-DC converters, and test and compare the accuracy of these two methods under various conditions. Finally, we provide a selection strategy for a high-accuracy modeling method for different DC-DC converters operating in DCM and verified by simulations, which revealed necessary and beneficial for designing a more accurate DCM closed-loop controller for DC-DC converters, thus achieving better stability and transient response.

ABSTRACT The anisotropy of the redshift space bispectrum contains a wealth of cosmological information. This anisotropy depends on the orientation of three vectors $\boldsymbol {k_1},\boldsymbol {k_2},\boldsymbol {k_3}$ with respect to the line of sight. Here, we have decomposed the redshift space bispectrum in spherical harmonics which completely quantify this anisotropy. To illustrate this, we consider linear redshift space distortion of the bispectrum arising from primordial non-Gaussianity. In the plane-parallel approximation, only the first four even ℓ multipoles have non-zero values, and we present explicit analytical expressions for all the non-zero multipoles, that is, upto ℓ = 6 and m = 4. The ratio of the different multipole moments to the real-space bispectrum depends only on β1 the linear redshift distortion parameter and the shape of the triangle. Considering triangles of all possible shapes, we have studied how this ratio depends on the shape of the triangle for β1 = 1. We have also studied the β1 dependence for some of the extreme triangle shapes. If measured in future, these multipole moments hold the potential of constraining β1. The results presented here are also important if one wishes to constrain fNL using redshift surveys.

<p>Biometric verification based on ear features is modern filed for scientific research. As known, there are many biometric identifiers that can identify people such as fingerprints, iris and speech. In this paper, the focus is placed on the ear biometric model in order to verifying the identity of persons. The main idea is based on used the moments as ear feature extractors. The proposed approach included some operations as follow: image capturing, edge detection, erosion, feature extraction, and matching. The proposed approach has been tested using many images of the ears with different states. Experimental results using several trails verified that the proposed approach is achieved high accuracy level over a wide variety of ear images. Also, the verification process will be completed by matching query ear image with ear images that kept in database during real time.</p>

The use of the complete Navier–Stokes system in an unbounded domain is not always convenient in computations and, therefore, the Navier–Stokes problem is often truncated to a bounded domain. In this paper we simulate the interaction between the flow in this domain and the exterior flow with the aid of a coupled problem. We propose in particular a linear approximation of the exterior flow (here the Stokes flow or potential flow) coupled with the interior Navier–Stokes problem via suitable transmission conditions on the artificial interface between the interior and exterior domains. Our choice of the transmission conditions ensures the existence of a solution of the coupled problem, also for large data.

AbstractThis paper focuses on the development of an efficient, three-dimensional, thermo-mechanical, nonlinear-Stokes flow computational model for ice sheet simulation. The model is based on the parallel finite element model developed in [14] which features high-order accurate finite element discretizations on variable resolution grids. Here, we add an improved iterative solution method for treating the nonlinearity of the Stokes problem, a new high-order accurate finite element solver for the temperature equation, and a new conservative finite volume solver for handling mass conservation. The result is an accurate and efficient numerical model for thermo-mechanical glacier and ice-sheet simulations. We demonstrate the improved efficiency of the Stokes solver using the ISMIP-HOM Benchmark experiments and a realistic test case for the Greenland ice-sheet. We also apply our model to the EISMINT-II benchmark experiments and demonstrate stable thermo-mechanical ice sheet evolution on both structured and unstructured meshes. Notably, we find no evidence for the “cold spoke” instabilities observed for these same experiments when using finite difference, shallow-ice approximation models on structured grids.

The Swedish V2 word order has been considered a notorious source of difficulty for L2 learners due to its strict rules. This study explores subject-verb word order in texts written in Swedish by 12-year-old and 15-year-old Finnish-speaking immersion students and by 16-year-old non-immersion students. Although the L1 of the informants lacks obligatory inversion, the analyses show that informants in all three groups have reached a high accuracy level in several aspects of word order in main clauses. However, the informants struggle with challenges that are similar to those detected in previous research: inversion is omitted in its obligatory occasions in main clauses but simultaneously overused in subordinate clauses where word order is canonical. In main clauses, the challenges focus on declarative main clauses with inversion. In subordinate clauses, on the contrary, the challenges focus on questions.
