Numerical detection of complex singularities for functions of two or more variables. Presenter: Alexandr Virodov Additional Authors: Prof. Michael Siegel Kamyar Malakuti Nan Maung
Outline • Motivation • 1D – Well known result • 2D – Our generalization • 2D – Application examples • 3D – Theory and example
Motivation • Kelvin-Helmholtz Instability
Motivation • Rayleigh-Taylor instability
Theory – 1D • C. Sulem, P.L. Sulem, and H. Frisch. Tracing complex singularities with spectral methods. J. of Comp. Phys., 50:138-161, 1983. • Asymptotic relation Im(x) Re(x)
Example – 1D • Inviscid Burger’s Equation
Theory – 2D • For it can be shown that Im(x) Re(x)
3 dimensions • Most general form • Again, it can be shown that
Further research • Application of the method to 3D Burger’s equation • Application of the method to the Euler’s equation • Accuracy and stability of the method for specific cases
