  2. Penalty method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penalty_method

    In the above equations, (()) is the exterior penalty function while is the penalty coefficient. When the penalty coefficient is 0, f p = f . In each iteration of the method, we increase the penalty coefficient p {\displaystyle p} (e.g. by a factor of 10), solve the unconstrained problem and use the solution as the initial guess for the next ...

  3. Lambert's problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lambert's_problem

    The distance between the points and is , the distance between the points and is = and the distance between the points and is = +. The value A {\displaystyle A} is positive or negative depending on which of the points P 1 {\displaystyle P_{1}} and P 2 {\displaystyle P_{2}} that is furthest away from the point F 1 {\displaystyle F_{1}} .

  4. Automatic calculation of particle interaction or decay

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_calculation_of...

    It refers to computing tools that help calculating the complex particle interactions as studied in high-energy physics, astroparticle physics and cosmology. The goal of the automation is to handle the full sequence of calculations in an automatic (programmed) way: from the Lagrangian expression describing the physics model up to the cross ...

  5. Finite volume method for two dimensional diffusion problem

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite_volume_method_for...

    We obtain the distribution of the property i.e. a given two dimensional situation by writing discretized equations of the form of equation (3) at each grid node of the subdivided domain. At the boundaries where the temperature or fluxes are known the discretized equation are modified to incorporate the boundary conditions.

  6. Lagrangian relaxation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lagrangian_relaxation

    The penalty method does not use dual variables but rather removes the constraints and instead penalizes deviations from the constraint. The method is conceptually simple but usually augmented Lagrangian methods are preferred in practice since the penalty method suffers from ill-conditioning issues.

  7. Collocation method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collocation_method

    In mathematics, a collocation method is a method for the numerical solution of ordinary differential equations, partial differential equations and integral equations.The idea is to choose a finite-dimensional space of candidate solutions (usually polynomials up to a certain degree) and a number of points in the domain (called collocation points), and to select that solution which satisfies the ...

  8. Relaxation (iterative method) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relaxation_(iterative_method)

    Relaxation methods are used to solve the linear equations resulting from a discretization of the differential equation, for example by finite differences. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] [ 4 ] Iterative relaxation of solutions is commonly dubbed smoothing because with certain equations, such as Laplace's equation , it resembles repeated application of a local ...

  9. Direct stiffness method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_stiffness_method

    It is a matrix method that makes use of the members' stiffness relations for computing member forces and displacements in structures. The direct stiffness method is the most common implementation of the finite element method (FEM). In applying the method, the system must be modeled as a set of simpler, idealized elements interconnected at the ...
