Web delivery of interactive laboratories: comparing three authoring tools
Computing in Science and Engineering - Tập 4 Số 5 - Trang 74-78 - 2002
R.R. Silbar
As educators know, the more a student interacts with a subject, the better he or she will learn it. This is particularly true in technical subjects. One way to promote interaction is to have "laboratories" in which the student manipulates objects on the computer screen using the keyboard or mouse and then sees those actions' outcome.

Treading new ground [tire industry]
Computing in Science and Engineering - Tập 4 Số 5 - Trang 12-13 - 2002
N. Forbes
A common interest in nonlinear dynamics and computational mechanics, together with forward-looking, supportive management, has brought engineers and scientists from Sandia National Laboratory in Albuquerque, New Mexico, together with their Goodyear counterparts to collaborate on several projects destined to improve the way tires are built and tested.

Parallel implementation issues: global versus local methods
Computing in Science and Engineering - Tập 4 Số 5 - Trang 26-31 - 2002
S.J. Thomas, R.D. Loft, J.M. Dennis
Spectral elements are a potential alternative to the spectral transform method widely used in atmospheric general circulation models. A semi-implicit formulation permits larger time steps than an explicit formulation. Thus, a semi-implicit 3D spectral-element dynamical core should achieve high performance levels on microprocessor-based parallel clusters and substantially accelerate the climate sim...... hiện toàn bộ

Applying local discretization methods in the NASA finite-volume general circulation model
Computing in Science and Engineering - Tập 4 Số 5 - Trang 49-54 - 2002
Kao-San Yeh, Shian-Jiann Lin, R.B. Rood
The general circulation model, developed at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center for climate simulations and other meteorological applications, emphasizes the conservative and monotonic transport and achieves sufficient accuracy for the global consistency of climate processes.

Climate modeling with spherical geodesic grids
Computing in Science and Engineering - Tập 4 Số 5 - Trang 32-41 - 2002
D.A. Randall, T.D. Ringler, R.P. Heikes, P. Jones, J. Baumgardner
A new approach to climate simulation uses geodesic grids generated from an icosahedron and could become on attractive alternative to current models. We implemented an atmospheric general circulation model using a geodesic discretization of the sphere. Our model uses the message-passing interface and runs efficiently on massively parallel machines.

The right angle: precise numerical orthogonality in eigenstates
Computing in Science and Engineering - Tập 4 Số 5 - Trang 91-97 - 2002
J.V. Noble
Solutions of the Schrodinger equation that pertain to different energies are orthogonal by virtue of quantum dynamics. However, when we obtain such solutions numerically using library differential equation solvers, and when the inner product is defined by numerical quadrature, the result is not sufficiently orthogonal for certain purposes. This paper shows how to construct stable finite-difference...... hiện toàn bộ

Message passing: from parallel computing to the grid
Computing in Science and Engineering - Tập 4 Số 5 - Trang 70-73 - 2002
G. Fox
Over the past decades, the computational science community has debated the best architecture for parallel computing. However, experience has found there is an almost irreconcilable difference between the way users would like to write their software and the way machines must be instructed to run efficiently. The use of message passing in parallel computing is a reasonable decision, because the resu...... hiện toàn bộ

Intensity-modulated radiation therapy
Computing in Science and Engineering - Tập 4 Số 5 - Trang 8-9 - 2002
D.I. Lewin
Radiation therapy is a tricky business. The goal is to deliver as much radiation as possible to a tumor while sparing nearby noncancerous tissue. A newer approach, called intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), relaxes the requirement for a uniform dose distribution, yet delivers the radiation more accurately to the cancerous region. This dose distribution, created by small beamlets that can...... hiện toàn bộ

Testing and evaluating atmospheric climate models
Computing in Science and Engineering - Tập 4 Số 5 - Trang 64-69 - 2002
V. Pope, T. Davies
Model validation is a crucial process that underpins model development and gives confidence to the results from running models. This article discusses a range of techniques for validating atmosphere models given that the atmosphere is chaotic and incompletely observed.
