چکیده
In vortex particle methods one is concerned with the problem of clustering and depletion of particles in different regions of the flow. The overlap of the vortex blobs is indeed of primary importance for the convergence of the method. In this paper we consider face-centred cubic (FCC) lattices for particle redistribution in three dimensions. This lattice is in fact the most natural way to pack spheres (the FCC is also known as a closest-sphere packing lattice). As a consequence, a point has 12 equidistant close neighbours rather than six for the cubic lattice. The FCC lattice thus offers some symmetry properties that should prove useful for a number of reasons, e.g., the core overlap issue. A few results for this scheme are presented. The problem of two colliding vortex rings at Re = 250 and 500 is studied with both the FCC and cubic lattice schemes. This problem subjects the vortex tubes to a quite strong stretching field and can amply test the quality of the lattice and the remeshing. PACS numbers: 47.32.Cc, 02.70.Ns

Easing the Transition from C++ to Java (Part 2)
In Part I of this article [1], we discussed how to address the problem of making Java and C++ co-exist in the same baseline. We introduced the Java Native Interface Simplified (JNIS) Framework as a simple mechanism that relies on common design idioms such as the Command and Observer patterns [2]. Instead of depending directly upon the JNI interface, we hide the details of JNI behind a set of C+...
متن کاملThe Start of an Eiffel Standard
The launching of the JOT provides a welcome opportunity to resume the Eiffel column that ran for many years in JOOP from 1998 (edited first by Rock Howard from whom I took over in 1998). It will run pretty much like its predecessor, with a mix of contributions by guest columnists and by me, and a mix of topics — from language matters to methodological issues of object-oriented software construc...
