High precision numerical accuracy in physics research

چکیده
Concerns arise that the current standard of double-precision floating-point may no longer be sufficient for today’s large-scale numerical simulations. One approach to solve this problem will be to switch to a wider floating-point format: the upcoming quadrupleprecision standard is introduced and compared to currently available software-based approaches. Another complimentary approach is to use mathematical and algorithmic techniques to improve the accuracy of large floating-point programs and the confidence in the quality of the result. r 2005 Elsevier B.V.

متن کاملHighly Parallel, High-Precision Numerical Integration
This paper describes schemes for rapidly computing numerical values of definite integrals to very high accuracy (hundreds to thousands of digits) on highly parallel computer systems. Such schemes are of interest not only in computational physics and computational chemistry, but also in experimental mathematics, where high-precision numerical values of definite integrals can be used to numerical...
متن کاملNumerical Solution of fuzzy differential equations of nth-order by Adams-Moulton method
In recent years, Fuzzy differential equations are very useful indifferent sciences such as physics, chemistry, biology and economy. It should be noted, that if the equations that appear to be uncertain, then take help of fuzzy logic at these equations. Considering that most of the time analytic solution of such equations and finding an exact solution has either high complexity or cannot be solv...
متن کاملVerification and Validation of Common Derivative Terms Approximation in Meshfree Numerical Scheme
In order to improve the approximation of spatial derivatives without meshes, a set of meshfree numerical schemes for derivative terms is developed, which is compatible with the coordinates of Cartesian, cylindrical, and spherical. Based on the comparisons between numerical and theoretical solutions, errors and convergences are assessed by a posteriori method, which shows that the approximations...
متن کاملDetermination of geometric accuracy of radiotherapy fields by port film and DRR using Matlab Graphical User Interface
Introduction: Radiation therapy is one of the methods of cancer treatment. In this method, it is necessary to avoid harming the healthy tissues of the patient which is in the vicinity of the target, as much as possible. Treatment verification is one of the most important steps of radiation therapy which has two usual methods, using Port film and EPID. The accuracy and precision of treatment in ...
