Charge transport in a superlattice: a numerical study using moment methods
Yossi Farjoun, Luis L. Bonilla
A semiclassical model of charge transport in a semiconductor superlattice is solved, using moments in the wavenumber direction and finite elements in the spatial direction (first o…
The sound of an evolving floating sculpture
Benjamin Seibold, Yossi Farjoun
Commissioned by MIT's in-house artist Jane Philbrick, we evolve an abstract 2D surface (resembling Marta Pan's 1961 "Sculpture Flottante I") under mean curvature, all the while cal…
A characteristic particle method for traffic flow simulations on highway networks
Yossi Farjoun, Benjamin Seibold
A characteristic particle method for the simulation of first order macroscopic traffic models on road networks is presented. The approach is based on the method "particleclaw", whi…
The hanging thin rod: A singularly perturbed eigenvalue problem
Yossi Farjoun, David G. Schaeffer
We study the vibrations of a hanging thin flexible rod, in which the dominant restoring force in most of the domain is tension due to the weight of the rod, while bending elasticit…
An exact particle method for scalar conservation laws and its application to stiff reaction kinetics
Yossi Farjoun, Benjamin Seibold
An "exact" method for scalar one-dimensional hyperbolic conservation laws is presented. The approach is based on the evolution of shock particles, separated by local similarity sol…
Aggregation According to Classical Kinetics--From Nucleation to Coarsening
Yossi Farjoun, John C. Neu
We solve the standard Lifshitz-Slyozov (LS) model with conservation of total particles in the limit of small super-saturation. The new element is an effective initial condition tha…
