A Parallel Performance Study of the High-order Compact Direct Flux Reconstruction Method for Conservation Laws on Maya Cluster
(2017)
The compact direct flux reconstruction method (CDFR) for conservation laws utilizes techniques from compact finite difference methods to directly approximate spatial derivatives of fluxes within standard elements. The CDFR ...
Quantifying the Impacts of Subpixel Reflectance Variability on Cloud Optical Thickness and Effective Radius Retrievals Based On High-Resolution ASTER Observations
(American Geophysical Union, 2018-04-26)
Recently, Zhang et al. (2016, https://doi.org/10.1002/2016JD024837) presented a mathematical framework based on a second-order Taylor series expansion in order to quantify the plane-parallel homogeneous bias (PPHB) in cloud ...
A Comparative Evaluation of Matlab, Octave, R, and Julia on Maya
(2017)
Matlab is the most popular commercial package for numerical computations in mathematics, statistics, the sciences, engineering, and other fields. Octave is a freely available software used for numerical computing. R is a ...
Comparisons of bispectral and polarimetric retrievals of marine boundary layer cloud microphysics: case studies using a LES–satellite retrieval simulator
(Copernicus Publications, 2018-06-26)
Many passive remote-sensing techniques have been developed to retrieve cloud microphysical properties from satellite-based sensors, with the most common approaches being the bispectral and polarimetric techniques. These ...
The importance of considering sub-grid cloud variability when using satellite observations to evaluate the cloud and precipitation simulations in climate models
(Copernicus Publications, 2018-08-03)
Satellite cloud observations have become an indispensable tool for evaluating general circulation models (GCMs). To facilitate the satellite and GCM comparisons, the CFMIP (Cloud Feedback Model Inter-comparison Project) ...
A Linearized Viscous, Compressible Flow-Plate Interaction with Non-dissipative Coupling
We address semigroup well-posedness for a linear, compressible viscous fluid interacting at its boundary with an elastic plate. We derive the model by linearizing the compressible Navier-Stokes equations about an arbitrary ...
Block Cyclic Distribution of Data in pbdR and its Effects on Computational Efficiency
(2013)
Programming with big data in R (pbdR), a package used to implement high-performance computing in the statistical software R, uses block cyclic distribution to organize large data across many processes. Because computations ...
Thumb inhibitor binding eliminates functionally important dynamics in the hepatitis C virus RNA polymerase
(Wiley, 2012-07-31)
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) has infected almost 200 million people worldwide, typically causing chronic liver damage and severe complications such as liver failure. Currently, there are few approved treatments for viral ...
Development of chromatofocusing techniques employing mixed-mode column packings for protein separations.
(Elsevier B.V, 2013-11-06)
Recent studies reported in the literature using mixed-mode chromatography (MMC) column packings have shown that multiple modes of interactions between the column packing and proteins can be usefully exploited to yield ...
An Approach to Tuning Hyperparameters in Parallel: A Performance Study Using Climate Data CyberTraining: Big Data + High-Performance Computing + Atmospheric Sciences
(2019)
The ability to predict violent storms and bad weather conditions with current models can be difficult due to the immense complexity associated with weather simulation. For example when predicting a tornado caution must be ...
