      The goal of this end of degree project is to develop an ecosystem simulator that can be used to learn about how ecosystems work in an easy, visual and fun way. Studying any discipline is tough, therefore this project ...
    • Efficient implementation of Galerkin meshfree methods for large-scale problems with an emphasis on maximum entropy approximants 

      Peco, Christian; Milian, Daniel; Rosolen, Adrian Martin; Arroyo Balaguer, Marino (2015-04-01)
      Article
      Accés obert
      In Galerkin meshfree methods, because of a denser and unstructured connectivity, the creation and assembly of sparse matrices is expensive. Additionally, the cost of computing basis functions can be significant in problems ...
    • Enlarging instruction streams

      Text en actes de congrés
      Accés obert
      A three-dimensional transient formulation of the frost formation process is developed by means of a finite volume approach. Emphasis is put on the frost surface boundary condition as well as the wide range of empirical ...
    • Tuning and hybrid parallelization of a genetic-based multi-point statistics simulation code 

      Peredo, Oscar; Ortiz, Julián M.; Herrero, José R.; Samaniego, Cristóbal (Elsevier, 2014-05)
      Article
      Accés obert
      One of the main difficulties using multi-point statistical (MPS) simulation based on annealing techniques or genetic algorithms concerns the excessive amount of time and memory that must be spent in order to achieve ...
