Creator:: Gibson, Nathan L.
Abstract:: Electromagnetic wave propagation in complex dispersive media is governed by the time dependent Maxwell’s equations coupled to equations that describe the evolution of the induced macroscopic polarization. We consider “polydispersive” materials represented by distributions of dielectric parameters in a polarization model. The work focuses on a novel computational framework for...

Abstract:: In this report we consider the Debye model along with Maxwell's equations (Maxwell-Debye) to model electromagnetic wave propagation in dispersive media that exhibit orientational polarization. We construct and analyze a sequential operator splitting method for the discretization of the Maxwell-Debye system. Energy analysis indicates that the operator splitting scheme is...

Creator:: Banks, H. T., Bokil, V. A., and Gibson, N. L.
Abstract:: We study the stability properties of, and the phase error present in, a finite element scheme for Maxwell’s equations coupled with a Debye or Lorentz polarization model. In one dimension we consider a second order formulation for the electric field with an ordinary differential equation for the electric polarization added...

Creator:: Bokil, Vrushali A. and Gibson, Nathan L.
Abstract:: We study the stability properties of, and the phase error present in, several higher order (in space) staggered finite difference schemes for Maxwell's equations coupled with a Debye or Lorentz polarization model. We present a novel expansion of the symbol of finite difference approximations, of arbitrary (even) order, of the...

Creator:: Falconer, Maynard C.
Abstract:: A new second order accurate nonuniform grid spacing technique which does not depend on supraconvergence is developed for Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) simulation of general three dimensional structures. The technique is useful for FDTD simulations of systems which require finer details in small regions of the simulation space by...

Creator:: Bokil, V. A., Gibson, N. L., Gyrya, V., and McGregor, D. A.
Abstract:: We present a novel strategy for minimizing the numerical dispersion error in edge discretizations of the time-domain electric vector wave equation on square meshes based on the mimetic finite difference (MFD) method. We compare this strategy, called M-adaptation, to two other discretizations, also based on square meshes. One is the...

Abstract:: One of the most significant challenges faced by hydrogeologic modelers is the disparity between the spatial and temporal scales at which fundamental flow, transport, and reaction processes can best be understood and quantified (e.g., microscopic to pore scales and seconds to days) and at which practical model predictions are needed...

Abstract:: Processes of metamorphosis, settlement, and growth were examined in Pacific sanddab using field studies and otolith microstructure. This flatfish transforms at large sizes, has a gradual metamorphosis, and settles to a nursery on the middle continental shelf. Eye migration takes 3 months and "metamorphosis proper" which begins after completion of...

Creator:: Harper, Kristine C.
Abstract:: American meteorology was synonymous with subjective weather forecasting in the early twentieth century. Controlled by the Weather Bureau and with no academic programs of its own, the few hundred extant meteorologists had no standing in the scientific community. Until the American Meteorological Society was founded in 1919, meteorologists had no...
