Sometimes, it’s easy for a computer to predict the future. Simple phenomena, such as how sap flows down a tree trunk, are straightforward and can be captured in a few lines of code using what ...

We consider the numerical approximation of a semilinear fractional order evolution equation involving a Caputo derivative in time of order α ϵ (0,1). Assuming a Lipschitz continuous nonlinear source ...

SIAM Journal on Numerical Analysis, Vol. 35, No. 2 (Apr., 1998), pp. 692-711 (20 pages) Various sophisticated finite element models for surface water flow based on the shallow water equations exist in ...

A new equation for accurate approximation of the Moody friction factor in the general gas-flow equation better approximates a wide range of Reynolds numbers than previously published equations. Other, ...

Grade school math students are likely familiar with teachers admonishing them not to just guess the answer to a problem. But a new proof establishes that, in fact, the right kind of guessing is ...
