Revision of Odes for Compphys Revision of ODEs for CompPhys E July 16, 2013 Odinary Differential Equations ODEs are quite easy. Numerical Solutions thereto Solving ODEs numerically is necessarily a matter of approximation, since computers are not continuous machines but use discrete numbers, and they additionally cannot deal with arbitrary-precision numbers1 and so the whole integral has to be discretized. Both of these effects have a role to play in the deviation of the algorithm from the true value of the integral. We only need study 1st order ODEs We can decompose an arbitrarily high order differential equation into a system of first order ODEs to solve using the algorithms to follow. For example (n) (k) y = f(fy gk=0;:::;n−1; x) (1) can be manipulated into a series of first order equations by defining 0 0 y0 = y ; yk = yk+1; k = 0; :::; n − 2 (2) which gives us 0 y0 = y1 0 y1 = y2 ::: = ::: 0 yn−2 = yn−1 0 yn−1 = f(fykgk=0;:::;n−1; x) (3) In vector form, this is just y0 = f(y; x). Integration Algorithms Euler Method Euler's method is pretty dumb, but it gets the job done.2 1Well they obviously can if you want them to but the libraries are so slow they may as well not. 2Actually it doesn't. 1 Solution of y0 = −2:3y computed with the Euler method with step size h = 1 (blue squares) and h = 0:7 (red circles). The black curve shows the exact solution. The Euler method first order, which means that the local error (error per step) is proportional to the square of the step size, and the global error (error at a given time) is proportional to the step size. It also suffers from stability problems. For these reasons, the Euler method is not often used in practice. It serves as the basis to construct more complicated methods. Instability . The Euler method is also pretty unstable. If the Euler method is applied to the linear equation y0 = ky, then the numerical solution is unstable if the product hk is outside the region z 2 C j jz + 1j ≤ 1 Modification: Backward Euler method A simple modification of the Euler method which eliminates the stability problems is the backward Euler method: yn+1 = yn + hf(tn+1; yn+1) This differs from the standard Euler method in that the function f is evaluated at the end point of the step, instead of the starting point. The backward Euler method is an implicit method, meaning that 2 Illustration of the midpoint method assuming that yn equals the exact value y(tn). The midpoint method computes yn+1 so that the red chord is approximately parallel to the tangent line at the midpoint (the green line). the formula for the backward Euler method has yn+1 on both sides, so when applying the backward Euler method we have to solve an equation. This makes the implementation more costly. Other modifications of the Euler method that help with stability yield the exponential Euler method or the semi-implicit Euler method. Taylor Expansion Method The Euler method can be thought of as a first-order Taylor expansion method: The local error of the Taylor-expansion algorithm of order p is O(hp+1), the global error is O(hp). The main disadvantage of this approach is that it requires recursively computing possibly high partial derivatives of f(y; x). Midpoint Method Further modification of the Euler method leads to the Midpoint method. 1 1 yn+1 = yn + hf tn + 2 h; yn + 2 hf(tn; yn) (4) The name of the method comes from the fact that in the formula above the function f is evaluated at t = tn + h=2, which is the midpoint between tn at which the value of y(t) is known and tn+1 at which the value of y(t) needs to be found. The local error at each step of the midpoint method is of order O h3, giving a global error of order O h2. Thus, while more computationally intensive than Euler's method, the midpoint method generally gives more accurate results. The method is an example of a class of higher-order methods known as Runge-Kutta methods. 3 Illustration of numerical integration for the equation y0 = y; y(0) = 1: Blue is the Euler method; green, the midpoint method; red, the exact solution, y = et: The step size is h = 1. Leapfrog Method Leapfrog leaves you waiting for more, testament to the fact it performs so poor. Good for differential equations of the formx ¨ = F (x) or equivalentlyv _ = F (x); x_ ≡ v; particularly in the case of a dynamical system of classical mechanics. Such problems often take the form x¨ = −∇V (x) Leapfrog integration is equivalent to updating positions x(t) and velocities v(t) =x _(t) at interleaved time points, staggered in such a way that they `leapfrog' over each other. For example, the position is updated at integer time steps and the velocity is updated at integer-plus-a-half time steps. Leapfrog integration is a second order method, in contrast to Euler integration, which is only first order, yet requires the same number of function evaluations per step. Unlike Euler integration, it is stable for oscillatory motion, as long as the time-step ∆t is constant, and ∆t ≤ 2=!. Why it's useful • It is time-reversible: One can integrate forwardn steps, and then reverse the direction of integration and integrate backwards n steps to arrive at the same starting position. • It has a symplectic nature, which implies that it conserves the (slightly modified) energy of dynam- ical systems. This is especially useful when computing orbital dynamics, as other integration schemes, such as the Runge-Kutta method, do not conserve energy and allow the system to drift sub- stantially over time. Verlet Integration Verlet integration is a numerical method used to integrate Newton's equations of motion. It is frequently used to calculate trajectories of particles in molecular dynamics simulations and computer graphics. The Verlet integrator offers greater stability, as well as other properties that are important in physical systems such as time-reversibility and preservation of the symplectic form on phase space, at no significant additional cost over the simple Euler method. 4 RK4 in pictorial form. Error The local error in position of the Verlet integrator is O(∆t4), and the local error in velocity is O(∆t2). The global error in position, in contrast, is O(∆t2) and the global error in velocity is O(∆t2). Read more about Verlet. Numerov Numerov's algorithm uses Taylor-expansion ideas and the particular structure of the ODE in question. It is good for equations of the form y00(x) + k(x)y(x) = 0. Equations of such a form include manipulations of the time-indepedent Schr¨odingereqn, for example. 1 5 1 1 + h2k y = 2 1 − h2k y − 1 + h2k y + O(h6) (5) 12 n+1 n+1 12 n n 12 n−1 n−1 Also clear is it provides 6th order accuracy. Runge-Kutta def rk4(x, h, y, f): k1 = h * f(x, y) k2 = h * f(x + 0.5*h, y + 0.5*k1) k3 = h * f(x + 0.5*h, y + 0.5*k2) k4 = h * f(x + h, y + k3) return x + h, y + (k1 + 2*(k2 + k3) + k4)/6.0 Here yn+1 is the RK4 approximation of y(tn+1), and the next value (yn+1) is determined by the present value (yn) plus the weighted average of four increments, where each increment is the product of the size of the interval, h, and an estimated slope specified by function f on the right-hand side of the differential equation. • k1 is the increment based on the slope at the beginning of the interval, usingy _, (Euler's method) ; 1 • k2 is the increment based on the slope at the midpoint of the interval, usingy _ + 2 hk1 ; 5 1 • k3 is again the increment based on the slope at the midpoint, but now usingy _ + 2 hk2 ; • k4 is the increment based on the slope at the end of the interval, usingy _ + hk3. In averaging the four increments, greater weight is given to the increments at the midpoint. The weights are chosen such that if f is independent of y, so that the differential equation is equivalent to a simple integral, then RK4 is Simpson's rule. The RK4 method is a fourth-order method, meaning that the error per step is on the order of O(h5), while the total accumulated error has order O(h4). Implicit Unfortunately, explicit Runge{Kutta methods are generally unsuitable for the solution of stiff equations because their region of absolute stability is small. This issue is especially important in the solution of partial differential equations. The instability of explicit Runge{Kutta methods motivates the development of implicit methods. An implicit Runge{Kutta method has the form s X yn+1 = yn + biki; i=1 where s X ki = hf tn + cih; yn + aijkj ; i = 1; : : : ; s: j=1 The consequence of this difference is that at every step, a system of algebraic equations has to be solved.

  • A High-Order Boris Integrator
    A high-order Boris integrator Mathias Winkela,∗, Robert Speckb,a, Daniel Ruprechta aInstitute of Computational Science, University of Lugano, Switzerland. bJ¨ulichSupercomputing Centre, Forschungszentrum J¨ulich,Germany. Abstract This work introduces the high-order Boris-SDC method for integrating the equations of motion for electrically charged particles in an electric and magnetic field. Boris-SDC relies on a combination of the Boris-integrator with spectral deferred corrections (SDC). SDC can be considered as preconditioned Picard iteration to com- pute the stages of a collocation method. In this interpretation, inverting the preconditioner corresponds to a sweep with a low-order method. In Boris-SDC, the Boris method, a second-order Lorentz force integrator based on velocity-Verlet, is used as a sweeper/preconditioner. The presented method provides a generic way to extend the classical Boris integrator, which is widely used in essentially all particle-based plasma physics simulations involving magnetic fields, to a high-order method. Stability, convergence order and conserva- tion properties of the method are demonstrated for different simulation setups. Boris-SDC reproduces the expected high order of convergence for a single particle and for the center-of-mass of a particle cloud in a Penning trap and shows good long-term energy stability. Keywords: Boris integrator, time integration, magnetic field, high-order, spectral deferred corrections (SDC), collocation method 1. Introduction Often when modeling phenomena in plasma physics, for example particle dynamics in fusion vessels or particle accelerators, an externally applied magnetic field is vital to confine the particles in the physical device [1, 2]. In many cases, such as instabilities [3] and high-intensity laser plasma interaction [4], the magnetic field even governs the microscopic evolution and drives the phenomena to be studied.

  • Vibration Odes 1
    Vibration ODEs 1 Vibration problems lead to differential equations with solutions that oscillate in time, typically in a damped or undamped sinusoidal fashion. Such solutions put certain demands on the numerical methods compared to other phenomena whose solutions are monotone or very smooth. Both the frequency and amplitude of the oscillations need to be accurately handled by the numerical schemes. The forthcom- ing text presents a range of different methods, from classical ones (Runge-Kutta and midpoint/Crank-Nicolson methods), to more modern and popular symplectic (ge- ometric) integration schemes (Leapfrog, Euler-Cromer, and Störmer-Verlet meth- ods), but with a clear emphasis on the latter. Vibration problems occur throughout mechanics and physics, but the methods discussed in this text are also fundamen- tal for constructing successful algorithms for partial differential equations of wave nature in multiple spatial dimensions. 1.1 Finite Difference Discretization Many of the numerical challenges faced when computing oscillatory solutions to ODEs and PDEs can be captured by the very simple ODE u00 C u D 0. This ODE is thus chosen as our starting point for method development, implementation, and analysis. 1.1.1 A Basic Model for Vibrations The simplest model of a vibrating mechanical system has the following form: u00 C !2u D 0; u.0/ D I; u0.0/ D 0; t 2 .0; T : (1.1) Here, ! and I are given constants.

This thesis aims to create interactive animation for characters in three dimen- sions using position based approach. Our character is pictured from ragdoll, which is a structure of system particles where all particles are linked by equidistance con- straints. The goal of this thesis is observed the fall in the space of our ragdoll after creating all constraints, as structure, contact and environment constraints. The structure constraint represents all joint constraints which have one, two or three Degree of Freedom (DOF). The contact constraints are represented by collisions between our ragdoll and other objects in the space. Finally, the environment constraints are represented by means of the wall con- straint. The achieved results allow to have a realist fall of our ragdoll in the space.

  • Simple Quantitative Tests to Validate Sampling from Thermodynamic
    Simple quantitative tests to validate sampling from thermodynamic ensembles Michael R. Shirts∗ Department of Chemical Engineering, University of Virginia, VA 22904 E-mail: [email protected] Abstract It is often difficult to quantitatively determine if a new molecular simulation algorithm or software properly implements sampling of the desired thermodynamic ensemble. We present some simple statistical analysis procedures to allow sensitive determination of whether a de- sired thermodynamic ensemble is properly sampled. We demonstrate the utility of these tests for model systems and for molecular dynamics simulations in a range of situations, includ- ing constant volume and constant pressure simulations, and describe an implementation of the tests designed for end users. 1 Introduction Molecular simulations, including both molecular dynamics (MD) and Monte Carlo (MC) tech- arXiv:1208.0910v1 [cond-mat.stat-mech] 4 Aug 2012 niques, are powerful tools to study the properties of complex molecular systems. When used to specifically study thermodynamics of such systems, rather than dynamics, the primary goal of molecular simulation is to generate uncorrelated samples from the appropriate ensemble as effi- ciently as possible. This simulation data can then be used to compute thermodynamic properties ∗To whom correspondence should be addressed 1 of interest. Simulations of several different ensembles may be required to simulate some thermo- dynamic properties, such as free energy differences between states. An ever-expanding number of techniques have been proposed to perform more and more sophisticated sampling from com- plex molecular systems using both MD and MC, and new software tools are continually being introduced in order to implement these algorithms and to take advantage of advances in hardware architecture and programming languages.

  • A Spectral Deferred Correction Method Applied to the Shallow Water Equations on a Sphere
    OCTOBER 2013 J I A E T A L . 3435 A Spectral Deferred Correction Method Applied to the Shallow Water Equations on a Sphere JUN JIA,JUDITH C. HILL,KATHERINE J. EVANS, AND GEORGE I. FANN Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Oak Ridge, Tennessee MARK A. TAYLOR Sandia National Laboratories, Albuquerque, New Mexico (Manuscript received 13 February 2012, in final form 7 December 2012) ABSTRACT Although significant gains have been made in achieving high-order spatial accuracy in global climate modeling, less attention has been given to the impact imposed by low-order temporal discretizations. For long-time simulations, the error accumulation can be significant, indicating a need for higher-order temporal accuracy. A spectral deferred correction (SDC) method is demonstrated of even order, with second- to eighth-order accuracy and A-stability for the temporal discretization of the shallow water equations within the spectral-element High-Order Methods Modeling Environment (HOMME). Because this method is stable and of high order, larger time-step sizes can be taken while still yielding accurate long-time simulations. The spectral deferred correction method has been tested on a suite of popular benchmark problems for the shallow water equations, and when compared to the explicit leapfrog, five-stage Runge–Kutta, and fully implicit (FI) second-order backward differentiation formula (BDF2) time-integration methods, it achieves higher accuracy for the same or larger time-step sizes. One of the benchmark problems, the linear advection of a Gaussian bell height anomaly, is extended to run for longer time periods to mimic climate-length simula- tions, and the leapfrog integration method exhibited visible degradation for climate length simulations whereas the second-order and higher methods did not.

  • Transport Properties of Fluids: Symplectic Integrators and Their
    Fluid Phase Equilibria 183–184 (2001) 351–361 Transport properties of fluids: symplectic integrators and their usefulness J. Ratanapisit a,b, D.J. Isbister c, J.F. Ely b,∗ a Chemical Engineering and Petroleum Refining Department, Colorado School of Mines, Golden, CO 80401, USA b Department of Chemical Engineering, Prince of Songla University, Hat-Yai, Songkla 90110, Thailand c School of Physics, University College, University of New South Wales, ADFA, Canberra, ACT 2600, Australia Abstract An investigation has been carried out into the effectiveness of using symplectic/operator splitting generated algorithms for the evaluation of transport coefficients in Lennard–Jones fluids. Equilibrium molecular dynamics is used to revisit the Green–Kubo calculation of these transport coefficients through integration of the appropriate correlation functions. In particular, an extensive series of equilibrium molecular dynamic simulations have been per- formed to investigate the accuracy, stability and efficiency of second-order explicit symplectic integrators: position Verlet, velocity Verlet, and the McLauchlan–Atela algorithms. Comparisons are made to nonsymplectic integrators that include the fourth-order Runge–Kutta and fourth-order Gear predictor–corrector methods. These comparisons were performed based on several transport properties of Lennard–Jones fluids: self-diffusion, shear viscosity and thermal conductivity. Because transport properties involve long time simulations to obtain accurate evaluations of their numerical values, they provide an excellent basis to study the accuracy and stability of the SI methods. To our knowledge, previous studies on the SIs have only looked at the thermodynamic energy using a simple model fluid. This study presents realistic, but perhaps the simplest simulations possible to test the effect of the integrators on the three main transport properties.

Abstract: In this paper we study the problem of the interaction of soft bodies modeled with mass spring models (MSM) and static elements of the environment. We show that in such setup it is possible to couple standard time evolution of MSMs with collision responses in a way, that does not require complex processing for multi collision situations while successfully preventing object inter-penetration.
