A geoscientifically relevant wavelet approach is established for the classical (inner) displacement problem corresponding to a regular surface (such as sphere, ellipsoid, actual earth's surface). Basic tools are the limit and jump relations of (linear) elastostatics. Scaling functions and wavelets are formulated within the framework of the vectorial Cauchy-Navier equation. Based on appropriate numerical integration rules a pyramid scheme is developed providing fast wavelet transform (FWT). Finally multiscale deformation analysis is investigated numerically for the case of a spherical boundary.

In these notes we will discuss some aspects of a problem arising in carindustry. For the sake of clarity we will set the problem into an extremely simplified scheme. Suppose that we have a body which is emitting sound, and that the sound is measured at a finite number of points around the body. We wish to determine the intensity of the sound at an observation point which is moving.

The paper presents some adaptive load balance techniques for the simulation of rarefied gas flows on parallel computers. It is shown that a static load balance is insufficient to obtain a scalable parallel efficiency. Hence, two adaptive techniques are investigated which are based on simple algorithms. Numerical results show that using heuristic techniques one can achieve a sufficiently high efficiency over a wide range of different hardware platforms.

Die Aufgabe dieses Projektes ist die Untersuchung des Schallfeldes, das sich in einem geschlossenen Quader bei Erregung durch eine punktförmige Schallquelle einstellt. Eine zentrale Rolle spielt hierbei die Wechselwirkung zwischen dem Schallfeld und den Quaderplatten, die zu Schwingungen angeregt werden und so dem Schallfeld Energie entziehen. Der Zweck dieser Untersuchung ist, Erkenntnisse für die Berechnung des Innendrucks zu Fahrzeugkarosserien zu gewinnen. Dies muß bei der Dimensionierung des Quaders und bei der Wahl des Plattenmaterials berücksichtigt werden. Numerische Berechnungen des Schalldrucks in einem Quader wurden beispielsweise in [1] durchgeführt. Das Ergebnis zeigt, daß zwei Arten von Resonanzen auftreten: Zum einen Strukturresonanzen, die durch Eigenschwingungen der Wände hervorgerufen werden und die von den Wandabmessungen und dem Plattenmaterial abhängen, zum anderen Hohlraumresonanzen, die auftreten, wenn die Luftwellenlänge in einem geeigneten Verhältnis zu den Abmessungen des Hohlraums steht. Es ist sehr zweifelhaft, welche Rückschlüsse gezogen werden können von den numerischen Resultaten in [1] auf kompliziertere Geometrien, wie sie bei Fahrzeugkarosserien vorliegen. Eine tiefere Einsicht in die Kopplung zwischen Schallfeld und Plattenschwingungen vor allem in den Resonanzbereichen ist nur zu erwarten, wenn die Berechnung dieser Wechselwirkung weitgehend analytisch durchgeführt wird. Eine solche analytische Berechnung ist das Ziel dieses Projektes.

As an alternative to the commonly used Monte Carlo Simulation methods for solving the Boltzmann equation we have developed a new code with certain important improvements. We present results of calculations on the reentry phase of a space shuttle. One aim was to test physical models of internal energies and of gas-surface interactions.

In this article a diffusion equation is obtained as a limit of a reversible kinetic equation with an ad hoc scaling. The diffusion is produced by the collisions of the particles with the boundary. These particles are assumed to be reflected according to a reversible law having convenient mixing properties. Optimal convergence results are obtained in a very simple manner. This is made possible because the model, based on Arnold" s cat map can be handled with Fourier series instead of the symbolic dynamics associated to a Markow partition.

Wavelet transform originated in 1980's for the analysis of seismic signals has seen an explosion of applications in geophysics. However, almost all of the material is based on wavelets over Euclidean spaces. This paper deals with the generalization of the theory and algorithmic aspects of wavelets to a spherical earth's model and geophysically relevant vector fields such as the gravitational, magnetic, elastic field of the earth.A scale discrete wavelet approach is considered on the sphere thereby avoiding any type of tensor-valued 'basis (kernel) function'. The generators of the vector wavelets used for the fast evaluation are assumed to have compact supports. Thus the scale and detail spaces are finite-dimensional. As an important consequence, detail information of the vector field under consideration can be obtained only by a finite number of wavelet coefficients for each scale. Using integration formulas that are exact up to a prescribed polynomial degree, wavelet decomposition and reconstruction are investigated for bandlimited vector fields. A pyramid scheme for the recursive computation of the wavelet coefficients from level to level is described in detail. Finally, data compression is discussed for the EGM96 model of the earth's gravitational field.
