In this work, analysis of heat transfer in porous fin with temperature-dependent thermal conductivity and internal heat generation is carried out using Chebychev spectral collocation method. The numerical solutions are used to investigate the influence of various parameters on the thermal performance of the porous fin. The results show that increase in convective parameter, porosity parameter, ...

We describe the design and implementation of GAUSS Ð an online algorithm selection system for numerical quadrature. Given a quadrature problem and performance constraints on its solution, GAUSS selects the best (or nearly best) algorithm. GAUSS uses inductive logic programming to generalize a database of performance data; this produces high-level rules that correlate problem features with algor...

We study the kernel Kn,s(z) of the remainder term Rn,s( f ) of Gauss–Turán–Kronrod quadrature rules with respect to one of the generalized Chebyshev weight functions for analytic functions. The location on the elliptic contours where the modulus of the kernel attains its maximum value is investigated. This leads to effective L∞-error bounds of Gauss–Turán–Kronrod quadratures. Following Kronrod,...

Partially coherent Lorentz-Gauss beams can propagate by remaining spatially localized and non-divergent. The Gaussian beams and after a bit application of Lorentz function, the Lorentz-Gauss beams are a better tool for optical communication. Analytical formulae for spatial complex degree of coherence are derived. In this paper mathematical model of Lorentz-Gauss beams is derived in terms of ABC...

Gauss–Legendre quadrature rules are of considerable theoretical and practical interest because of their role in numerical integration and interpolation. In this paper, a series expansion for the zeros of the Legendre polynomials is constructed. In addition, a series expansion useful for the computation of the Gauss–Legendre weights is derived. Together, these two expansions provide a practical ...

Tensor products of Gauss-Lobatto quadrature points are frequently used as collocation points in spectral element methods. Unfortunately, it is not known if Gauss-Lobatto points exist in non-tensor-product domains like the simplex. In this work, we show that the n-dimensional tensor-product of Gauss-Lobatto quadrature points are also Fekete points. This suggests a way to generalize spectral meth...

A very general beam solution of the paraxial wave equation in circular cylindrical coordinates is presented. We call such a field a circular beam (CiB). The complex amplitude of the CiB is described by either the Whittaker functions or the confluent hypergeometric functions and is characterized by three parameters that are complex in the most general situation. The propagation through complex A...

We present an efficient quantum algorithm for estimating Gauss sums over finite fields and finite rings. This is a natural problem as the description of a Gauss sum can be done without reference to a black box function. With a reduction from the discrete logarithm problem to Gauss sum estimation we also give evidence that this problem is hard for classical algorithms. The workings of the quantu...

A classical link in 3-space can be represented by a Gauss paragraph encoding a link diagram in a combinatorial way. A Gauss paragraph may code not a classical link diagram, but a diagram with virtual crossings. We present a criterion and a linear algorithm detecting whether a Gauss paragraph encodes a classical link. We describe Wirtinger presentations realizable by virtual link groups.
