Standardizing calculations of the helium byproducts generated in advanced fission and fusion energy system materials can increase reactor safety and longevity, according to a study led by University ...
Karst wetlands, with their distinctive calcium-rich soils and dynamic hydrology, face growing ecological challenges due to biodiversity loss, habitat degradation, and climate change. Accurate ...
Abstract: A semianalytical spectral element method (SEM) is proposed for electromagnetic simulations of 3-D layered structures. 2-D spectral elements are employed to discretize the cross section of a ...
Sponsored by The University of Idaho. The environmental challenges proposed by extracting rare earth elements could potentially be a thing of the past, all thanks to efforts of the University of Idaho ...
Abstract: The mixed spectral-element method (MSEM) is applied to solve the waveguide problem with the Bloch periodic boundary condition (BPBC). Based on the BPBC for the original Helmholtz equation ...
A new method improves the extraction and separation of rare earth elements—a group of 17 elements critical for technologies such as smart phones and electric car batteries—from unconventional sources.
ABSTRACT: Finite difference type preconditioners for spectral element discretizations based on Legendre-Gauss-Lobatto points are analyzed. The latter is employed for the approximation of uniformly ...
