✦ Synopsis

A three-dimensional ΓΏnite-volume/Newton method is developed for solving thermal-capillary problems in materials processing. The conductive heat transfer, melt-solid interfaces, the melt-gas free surface, and the shape of grown material are calculated simultaneously. The implementation of interface and free surface boundary conditions, as well as co-ordinate transformation, is described in detail. During the Newton iterations, due to the complexity of the problem, the Jacobian matrix is estimated by ΓΏnite di erences, and the linear equations are solved by the ILU(0) preconditioned GMRES iterative method. Nearly quadratic convergence of the scheme is achieved. Sample calculations for oating-zone and Stepanov crystal growth are illustrated.

In this paper, the authors treat the free-surface waves generated by a moving disturbance with a constant speed in water of finite and constant depth. Specifically, the case when the disturbance is moving with the critical speed is investigated. The water is assumed inviscid and its motion irrotatio

A boundary element method for solving three-dimensional linear elasticity problems that involve a large number of particles embedded in a binder is introduced. The proposed method relies on an iterative solution strategy in which matrix-vector multiplication is performed with the fast multipole meth
