Treating the coupling of the structure deformations and the fluid flow poses a number of challenging problems for numerical simulations (the elastic boundary changes the flow of the fluid and the fluid moves the elastic boundary simultaneously).
Efficient and economical water splitting would be a technological breakthrough that could underpin a hydrogen economy. A version of water splitting occurs in photosynthesis, but hydrogen is not produced. The reverse of water splitting is the basis of the hydrogen fuel cell. Water splitting using solar radiation has not been commercialized.
The Advection Upstream Splitting Method (AUSM) is a numerical method used to solve the advection equation in computational fluid dynamics. It is particularly useful for simulating compressible flows with shocks and discontinuities. The AUSM is developed as a numerical inviscid flux function for solving a general system of conservation equations.
Affine connections can be defined within Cartan's general framework. [7] In the modern approach, this is closely related to the definition of affine connections on the frame bundle. Indeed, in one formulation, a Cartan connection is an absolute parallelism of a principal bundle satisfying suitable properties.
A water model is defined by its geometry, together with other parameters such as the atomic charges and Lennard-Jones parameters. In computational chemistry, a water model is used to simulate and thermodynamically calculate water clusters, liquid water, and aqueous solutions with explicit solvent, often using molecular dynamics or Monte Carlo methods.
The striped borders correspond to perfectly matched layers, which are used to simulate open boundaries by absorbing the outgoing waves. A perfectly matched layer ( PML ) is an artificial absorbing layer for wave equations , commonly used to truncate computational regions in numerical methods to simulate problems with open boundaries, especially ...
In atomic physics, hyperfine structure is defined by small shifts in otherwise degenerate electronic energy levels and the resulting splittings in those electronic energy levels of atoms, molecules, and ions, due to electromagnetic multipole interaction between the nucleus and electron clouds.
The Levi-Civita connection (like any affine connection) also defines a derivative along curves, sometimes denoted by D. Given a smooth curve γ on (M, g) and a vector field V along γ its derivative is defined by = ˙ (). Formally, D is the pullback connection γ*∇ on the pullback bundle γ*TM.
