Round-o induced instabilities and some unusual arithmetics
نویسنده
چکیده
We consider some unusual phenomena that appear in long consecutive calculations due to a new sort of round-oo errors of Pentium oating point division bug type. Mathematical model of these round-oo errors is proposed and new phenomena in numerical simulations of dynamical systems (diierential equations) and other numerical procedures are discussed. It is shown also that these new phenomena could appear not only with Pentium oating point division bugs, but in a more general situation.

O-27: Genome Instabilities in Preimplantation Development Leading to Genetic Variation between Tissues of Normal Human Fetuses
Background: Origin of midlife copy number variations (CNVs) between tissues in non-genetic diseases is unknown. Such genomic differences caused by post-zygotic events. They might either happen during the life or due to prevalent mosaicism in preimplantation stage. We aim to explore fetal mosaicism and its origins. Materials and Methods: Two apparently normal fetuses were achieved following the ...
متن کاملStability analysis of block-flexural toppling of rock blocks with round edges
One of the most conventional toppling instabilities is the block-flexural toppling failure that occurs in civil and mining engineering projects. In this kind of failure, some rock columns are broken due to tensile bending stresses, and the others are overturned due to their weights, and finally, all of the blocks topple together. A specific feature of spheroidal weathering is the rounding of th...
متن کاملEffectiveness of Sparse Data Structure for Double-Double and Quad-Double Arithmetics
Double-double and quad-double arithmetics are effective tools to reduce the round-off errors in floating-point arithmetic. However, the dense data structure for high-precision numbers in MuPAT/Scilab requires large amounts of memory and a great deal of the computation time. We implemented sparse data types ddsp and qdsp for double-double and quad-double numbers. We showed that sparse data struc...
متن کاملO-9: Generation of Haploid Spermatids with Fertilization and Development Capacity from Human Spermatogonial Stem Cells of Cryptorchid Patients
Background Infertility affects around 15% of couples, and male factors account for 50%. Cryptorchidism is one of the most common causes for azoospermia. Generation of functional spermatids from azoospermia patients is of unusual significance for treating male infertility. It has been recently reported by peers and us that human spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) can be clearly identified and cult...
متن کاملFundamental techniques for reducing risk associated with instabilities in mining slopes
This paper discusses some of the fundamental considerations when managing mining slopes. The goal of management is to reduce all components that contribute to the geotechnical risk and by doing so reduce the risk to as low as reasonably achievable. The techniques and procedures suggested are not exhaustive; they represent a snapshot of some of the practical techniques the author has found usefu...
