An analysis of the periodically forced PP04 climate model, using the theory of non-smooth dynamical systems

Kgomotso S. Morupisi, Chris J. Budd

In this paper we perform a careful analysis of the forced PP04 model for climate change, in particular the behaviour of the ice-ages. This system models the transition from a glaci…

The scaling and skewness of optimally transported meshes on the sphere

Chris J. Budd, Andrew T. T. McRae, Colin J. Cotter

In the context of numerical solution of PDEs, dynamic mesh redistribution methods (r-adaptive methods) are an important procedure for increasing the resolution in regions of intere…

Optimal-transport-based mesh adaptivity on the plane and sphere using finite elements

Andrew T. T. McRae, Colin J. Cotter, Chris J. Budd

In moving mesh methods, the underlying mesh is dynamically adapted without changing the connectivity of the mesh. We specifically consider the generation of meshes which are adapte…

Mesh Adaptation on the Sphere using Optimal Transport and the Numerical Solution of a Monge-Ampère type Equation

Hilary Weller, Philip Browne, Chris Budd +1

An equation of Monge-Ampère type has, for the first time, been solved numerically on the surface of the sphere in order to generate optimally transported (OT) meshes, equidistribut…

Multi-layer asymptotic solution for wetting fronts in porous media with exponential moisture diffusivity

Christopher J. Budd, John M. Stockie

We study the asymptotic behaviour of sharp front solutions arising from the nonlinear diffusion equation θ_t = (D(θ)θ_x)_x, where the diffusivity is an exponential function D(θ) =…

The Geometry of r-adaptive meshes generated using Optimal Transport Methods

C. J. Budd, R. D. Russell, E. Walsh

The principles of mesh equidistribution and alignment play a fundamental role in the design of adaptive methods, and a metric tensor M and mesh metric are useful theoretical tools…

The Alignment Properties of Monge-Ampere based Mesh Redistribution Methods: I Linear Features

C. J. Budd, R. D. Russell, E. Walsh

Many adaptive mesh methods explicitly or implicitly use equidistribution and alignment. These principles can be considered central to mesh adaption. A Metric Tensor is the tool by…

The Origin of Power-Law Emergent Scaling in Large Binary Networks

D. P. Almond, C. J. Budd, M. A. Freitag +3

In this paper we study the macroscopic conduction properties of large but finite binary networks with conducting bonds. By taking a combination of a spectral and an averaging based…
