The aim of the group "Numerical Analysis" is to share ideas about numerical methods, software, books, workshops, conferences and job opportunities related to Numerical Analysis. ------------------------------------------------------- From: Rob Bisseling [log in to unmask] Date: August 30, 2013 Subject: Mondriaan 4.0: Sparse Matrix Partitioning Package We would like to announce the availability of version 4.0 of the Mondriaan package. Mondriaan can be used as a preprocessing tool for large parallel sparse matrix-vector multiplications. It subdivides the nonzeros of the matrix into a desired number of parts and generates a permutation of the matrix based on this subdivision. Version 4.0 contains several improvements compared to its previous version. These are: - The medium-grain partitioning method, which offers improved   quality and faster partitioning. Medium-grain is the new default   partitioning strategy. - Improved quality through iterative refinement of bipartitionings   by using the medium-grain method. - Advanced matching of hypergraph vertices in the coarsening phase   of the partitioning, through the use of the PGA' matching algorithm. - The lambda*(lambda - 1) hypergraph cost metric which measures the   communication volume of all-neighbor communication. The package and related documentation can be obtained from: http://www.staff.science.uu.nl/~bisse101/Mondriaan/ Mondriaan is written in C and distributed under the GNU LGPL license.

Post-Doctoral Research Project University of São Paulo at São Carlos – ICMC- Department of Applied Mathematics and Statistics Location: São Carlos – São Paulo State- Brazil Title: Highly-resolved computational modeling of turbidity current phenomena at field scale Supervisor: Gustavo C. Buscaglia Job description/Requirements: Turbidity currents are one of the main mechanisms for sediment transport into the deep ocean. The hydrodynamics involved in field scale turbidity currents lead to very complex, multi-phase, multi-scale physical phenomena. A comprehensive understanding of the interconnection between the processes at the macroscopic and microscopic levels is mandatory for accurate predictions. Highly-resolved computer models have proved to successfully describe the flow structure as well as its implication on sedimentation processes at moderate Reynolds numbers and planar bottom topography. Specifically, self-stratification effects due to sedimentation have been found to be responsible of turbulence damping and massive sedimentation deposits formation (Cantero et al., Geophysical Research Letters, 2012, Nature Geosci., 2012). The purpose of this project is to develop a computer model to solve for the hydrodynamics and sediment transport processes involved in field scale turbidity currents considering realistic bottom topography and ocean ambient conditions. The main features of the desired model are: Two-fluid treatment of the disperse phase, finite element/volume space discretization, LES turbulence modeling, erosion/deposition boundary conditions and topography evolution. The successful applicant will participate of a collaborative effort being developed by the Brazilian team headed by Dr. Gustavo Buscaglia and an Argentinean team headed by Dr. Mariano Cantero. A doctoral degree in Applied Mathematics, Engineering or a related area is required, together with experience in Computational Fluid Dynamics by finite elements or finite volumes.

Post-Doctoral Research Project Aerodynamics Division - Instituto de Aeronautica e Espaço - DCTA/IAE/ALA Location: São José dos Campos – São Paulo State- Brazil Title: Large Eddy Simulations and Aeroacoustics of Perfectly Expanded Supersonic Jets Supervisor: João Luiz F. Azevedo Job Description/Requirements: The main objective of the present research work is to study and develop a numerical methodology for the prediction of acoustic propagation and radiation due to the interaction of exhaust gases from rocket engines with the ambient air, under perfectly expanded supersonic jet conditions. In general, supersonic jet noise generation has three main mechanisms: (1) noise due to turbulent mixture processes; (2) noise due to shock waves; and (3) well-defined tonal noise or screech noise. In the present work, since perfectly expanded jets are being considered, mechanisms (2) and (3) can be neglected. Therefore, only the first mechanism will be considered. It is commonly accepted that the mechanism of noise emission of type (1) can adequately be described by hydrodynamic instability theory, in which one can assume a slow evolution of the mixing layer. The present work will use hybrid methods in order to handle the problem of interest. Hybrid methods compute sound generation and propagation separately. Typically, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) techniques are used to calculate the flow variables in the region where the nonlinear acoustic sources are located. Such flow variables are, then, used as initial data for sound propagation formulations which will yield the noise levels at distant observers. Clearly, the flow physical characteristics must be accurately captured by the CFD method in order to use hybrid methods. Moreover, the turbulent aerodynamic flows considered in the present work yield acoustic sources in a broad regime of frequencies and spatial scales. Therefore, large eddy simulation (LES) is the method of choice for the calculation of the flows of interest, since this formulation can capture the most energetic scales associated with noise generation. The acoustic analogy formulation of Ffowcs Williams and Hawkings (FWH) will be used for the acoustic calculations of sound radiation due to the supersonic jet flows of interest. Candidates must hold a doctoral degree in Aerospace or Mechanical Engineering, or in a related area, with demonstrated experience in the calculation of turbulent flows and/or aeroacoustics. They should submit a comprehensive CV, which indicates their previous experience especially as it relates to the subject matter of the present proposal.

More specifically, these methods should enable the extraction of fairly complicated sources of biomedical activity from sets of uni- and multimodal data. Progress of a generic nature will be pursued along the following tracks: - Development of algorithms for the computation of tensor   decompositions, generalizing insights from numerical linear algebra, - Development of tensor-based algorithms for signal separation, with   special focus on the analysis of multi-modal data and the   integration of prior knowledge, - Development of algorithms for decomposition updating and tracking.   The resulting algorithms will be integrated in a user-friendly   open-source software platform. The new techniques will be validated for and tailored to three biomedical applications for which extensive expertise is available in the team: - Metabolite quantification and brain tumour tissue typing using   Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopic Imaging, - Functional monitoring including seizure detection and   polysomnography, - Cognitive brain functioning and seizure zone localization using   simultaneous Electroencephalography – functional Magnetic Resonance   Imaging. The work will be conducted in close collaboration with medical experts in the university hospitals.
