Singular perturbations occur in many important applications and developing asymptotic methods to study such problems continues to present challenges to the applied mathematician.

The authors are to be commended for One valuable feature of the book is the large number of remarks, which clarify details of the various methods. The book is an essential reference for the researcher on computation of singular perturbation problems. This well-written and lucid book will act as a useful state-of-the-art reference guide for researchers and students interested in understanding what has been published on robust numerical methods for singularly perturbed differential equations.

In addition, it is clear from this book that many avenues of research remain open within the broad field of singularly perturbed problems. This considerably extended and completely revised second edition incorporates many new developments in the thriving field of numerical methods for singularly perturbed differential equations. It provides a thorough foundation for the numerical analysis and solution of these problems, which model many physical phenomena whose solutions exhibit layers.

The book focuses on linear convection-diffusion equations and on nonlinear flow problems that appear in computational fluid dynamics. It offers a comprehensive overview of suitable numerical methods while emphasizing those with realistic error estimates.

Effects of data collection schemes and systems on the imaging performance of electromagnetic inverse problems Abstract: Summary form only given. Although electromagnetic inverse problems are, as is canonically understood, ill-posed mathematical problems, there are several possibilities that arise with respect to the practical design of the imaging system with which scattered field data is collected that can ameliorate the problem and significantly improve the imaging performance.

The standard techniques for dealing with the ill-posedness of the problem aim at reducing modelling error and regularizing the mathematical inverse problem. This includes the creation of simplified systems that are amenable to a manageable numerical inversion model; both in terms of the achievable model accuracy as well as with respect to the required computational resources.

Of course, the reduction of modelling errors is important as large errors between the numerical model and the actual system contribute to the inability of the inversion algorithm to converge to the true solution i.

Data calibration techniques and numerical methods of regularizing the mathematical problem have been well studied in the past, and are indeed necessary to arrive at useful solutions. In this work we focus on some available system design options that can promote better convergence and accuracy of the converged solution. In particular, the following options will be considered: 1 the use of resonant metallic chambers of various shapes; 2 the collection of different field components within the chamber; 3 the use of several immersion media; and 4 the use of dynamic bound-aries to establish not only diverse incident field data, but also to diversify the effective Green's function of the inverse problem.

The figures on the right refer to the first four iterations of the method for the function with initial guess value. The function is available in the file newton. First four iterations of the Newton method At each iterations a function evaluation with its derivative is required.

For the newton method it is possible to prove the following results: if the function f is continuous with continuous derivatives until order 2 near the zero, the zero is simple has multiplicity 1 and the initial guess is picked in a neighborhood of the zero, then the method converges and the convergence rate is equal to quadratic. As expected, the number significant figures doubles at each iteration. Relative error of the Newton method Iterations of the Newton method In the Newton method, if the zero is multiple, the convergence rate decreases from quadratic to linear.

As an example, consider the function with zero.

Numerical Methods/Equation Solving

Then the Newton method can be stated as giving the error which is clearly linear. On the right we report an example of loss of quadratic convergence applied to the function which has a zero of multiplicity 2 in. The relative error shows a linear behavior, indeed the method gains a constant number of significant figures every 3 or 4 iterations. Function with a zero of multiplicity 2 Loss of quadratic convergence As reported in the table on the right, under the above mentioned hypothesis it is possible to identify a neighborhood of the zero such that, for each initial guess in , the sequence is monotonically decreasing or increasing to the zero.

For instance, if the function is convex and increasing second row and second column case in the table , the Newton method with an initial guess picked on the right of the zero converges monotonically decreasing to the unknown zero.

The Newton method with the above choosing criterion also ensures that all are well defined, i. Function properties decrease increase concave Right domain Left domain convex Left domain Right domain How to choose the initial guess for global convergence If the iterative scheme converges to the value , i.

The three examples on the left show cases in which the method converges to the unknown zero, while among the examples on the right there is no convergence of the method, even if the functions seem to be quite similar to the ones on the left. Note: The Newton method is a particular case of fixed point iteration method where.

Graphical examples of iterations applied to 6 different functions Relative error and iterations of the fixed point iteration method The function is available in the file fixedpoint. First four iterations of the fixed-point iteration method Moreover, in this case, it is possible to prove that the solution is the unique solution in the interval of the equation. While, if in the whole interval , the sequence does not converge to the solution even if we start very close to the zero. Proof of convergence idea Using the Taylor formula we have where are unknown values in the intervals.

If the derivatives are bounded by the relation the error can be written as i.

1st Edition

Proof of convergence rate idea Assuming and using the Taylor formula we have where and. If we have a linear rate of convergence of the sequence, i. If and we have a quadratic rate of convergence of the sequence, i. Starting from this function it is possible to write different kinds of fixed point iterations: 1. The initial guess is equal to. Original function Relative error for different fixed point iterations In the figure on the right we can see a typical result on relative errors, in step with the rates of convergence discussed earlier for the different methods.

At a first glance, one might think that the Newton method should be always chosen, since its convergence is the best one, but it has to be considered that this method needs the computation of the derivative, which could require the evaluation of the original function, which can be numerically very expensive.
