Numerical approximation of statistical solutions of incompressible flow
(2015)Research ReportWe present a finite difference-(Multi-level) Monte Carlo algorithm to efficiently compute statistical solutions of the two dimensional Navier-Stokes equations, with periodic bound- ary conditions and for arbitrarily high Reynolds number. We propose a reformulation of statistical solutions in the vorticity-stream function form. The vorticity-stream function for- mulation is discretized with a finite difference scheme. We obtain a convergence ...Report -
A well-balanced finite volume scheme for the Euler equations with gravitation
(2015)Research ReportContext <br/> Many problems in astrophysics feature flows which are close to hydrostatic equilibrium. However, standard numerical schemes for compressible hydrodynamics may be deficient in approximating this stationary state, in which the pressure gradient is nearly balanced by gravitational forces. <br/> Aims <br/> We aim to develop a second-order well-balanced scheme for the Euler equations. The scheme is designed to mimic a discrete ...Report -
Entropy stability and well-balancedness of space-time DG for the shallow water equations with bottom topography
(2015)Research ReportWe describe a shock-capturing streamline diffusion space-time discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method to discretize the shallow water equations with variable bottom topography. This method, based on the entropy variables as degrees of freedom, is shown to be energy stable as well as well-balanced with respect to the lake at rest steady state. We present numerical experiments illustrating the numerical method.Report -

Tunneling time and weak measurement in strong field ionisation
(2015)Research ReportTunnelling delays is a hotly debated topic, with many conflicting definitions and little consensus on when and if such definitions accurately describe the physical observables. Here we relate these different definitions to distinct experimental observables in strong field ionization, finding that two definitions, Larmor time and Bohmian time, are compatible with the attoclock observable and the resonance lifetime of a bound state, ...Report -
