Discretization method and numerical calculations of wigner function to introduce the influence of spatially varying effective mass as well as to reduce the error involved in the conventional discretization model are presented. Using this new discrete model, the transient responses of resonant-tunneling-diode are analyzed.

This paper proposes a design procedure based on the LQG/LTR (Linear Quadratic Gaussian/ Loop Transfer Recovery) method for a launch vehicle. Continuous-discrete type LQG/LTR compensators are designed using the e-transformation to overcome numerical problems occurring in the process of discretization. The e-LQG/LTR compensator using the e-transformation is compared width the z-LQG/LTR compensator using the z-transformation. The performance of the overall system controlled by the compensator is evaluated via simulations, which show that the discretization error problem is resolved and the control performances are satisfactory in the proposed compensator.

A new decision tree generator MEC is proposed in this paper, which uses the difference of multi-base entropy as a consistent criterion for discretization and selection of attributes. To evaluate the performance of the proposed generator, it is compared to other generators which use criteria based on entropy and adopt different discretization styles. As an experimental result, it is shown that the proposed generator produces the most efficient classifiers, which have the least number of leaves at the same error rate, regardless of whether attribute values constituting the training set are discrete or continuous.

An automated procedure which allows adaptation of spatial and time discretization simultaneously in finite element analysis of linear elastodynamic problems is presented. For dynamic problems having responses dominated by high frequency modes, such as those with impact, explosive, traveling and earthquake loads high gradient stress regions change their locations from time to time. And the time step size may need to vary in order to deal with whole process ranging from transient phase to steady state phase. As the sizes of elements in space vary in different regions, the procedure also permits different time stepping. In such a way, the best performance attainable by the finite element method can be achieved. In this study, we estimate both of the kinetic energy error and stran energy error induced by spatial and time discretization in a consistent manner. Numerical examples are used to demonstrate the performance of the procedure.

Layered manufacturing(LM) is emerging as a new technology that enables the fabrication of three dimensional heterogeneous objects such as Multi-materials and Functionally Gradient Materials (FGMs). Among various types of heterogeneous objects, more attention has recently paid on the fabrication of FGMs because of their potentials in engineering applications. The necessary steps for LM fabrication of FGMs include representation and process planning of material information inside an FGM. This paper introduces a new process planning algorithm that takes into account the processing of material information. The detailed tasks are discretization (i.e., decomposition-based approximation of volume fraction), orientation (build direction selection), and adaptive slicing of heterogeneous objects. In particular, this paper focuses on the discretization process that converts all of the material information inside an FGM into material features like geometric features. It is thus possible to choose an optimal build direction among various pre-selected ones by approximately estimating build time. This is because total build time depends on the complexity of features. This discretization process also allows adaptive slicing of heterogeneous objects to minimize surface finish and material composition error. In addition, tool path planning can be simplified into fill pattern generation. Specific examples are shown to illustrate the overall procedure.

In the finite element analysis of forming process, objects are described with a finite number of elements and nodes and the approximated solutions can be obtained by the variational principle. One of the shortcomings of a finite element analysis is that the structure of mesh has become inefficient and unusable because discretization error increases as deformation proceeds due to severe distortion of elements. If the state of current mesh satisfies a certain remeshing criterion, analysis is stopped instantly and resumed with a reconstructed mesh. In the study, a new remeshing algorithm using tetrahedral elements has been developed, which is adapted to the desired mesh density. In order to reduce the discretization error, desired mesh sizes in each lesion of the workpiece are calculated using the Zinkiewicz and Zhu's a-posteriori error estimation scheme. The pre-constructed mesh is constructed based on the modified point insertion technique which is adapted to the density function. The object domain is divided into uniformly-sized sub-domains and the numbers of nodes in each sub-domain are redistributed, respectively. After finishing the redistribution process of nodes, a tetrahedral mesh is reconstructed with the redistributed nodes, which is adapted to the density map and resulting in good mesh quality. A goodness and adaptability of the constructed mesh is verified with a testing measure. The proposed remeshing technique is applied to the finite element analyses of forging processes.

Mathematical analysis is made on a mesh free method for the compressible Euler equations. In particular, the Moving Least Square Reproducing Kernel (MLSRK) method is employed for space approximation. With the backward-Euler method used for time discretization, existence of discrete solution and it's $L^2-error$ estimate are obtained under a regularity assumption of the continuous solution. The result of numerical experiment made on the biconvex airfoil is presented.

This paper describes a numerical solution of Navier-Stokes equations. It includes algorithms for discretization by finite element methods and a posteriori error estimation of the computed solutions. In order to evaluate the performance of the method, the numerical results are compared with some previously published works or with others coming from commercial code like ADINA system.

The concept of discrete curvature is a discretization of the curvature. Many literatures introduce discrete curvatures derived from arc length of circular arcs. We propose a new concept of discrete curvature of a polygon at each vertex, which is derived from area of fan shapes. We estimate the error of the discrete curvature and compare the discrete curvature with old one.

The suitability of high-order accurate, centered and upwind-biased compact difference schemes for large eddy simulation is evaluated by a spectral, static error analysis. To investigate the effect of numerical dissipation on LES solutions, power spectra of discretization errors are evaluated for isotropic turbulence models in both continuous and discrete wavevector spaces. Contrary to the common belief, the aliasing errors from upwind-biased schemes are larger than those from comparable non-dissipative schemes. However, this result is the direct consequence of the definition of the power spectral density of the aliasing error, which poses the limitation of the static error analysis for upwind schemes.
