The Design of an On-Chip Silicon Photonic Diode
(2013-05-13)This work presents numerical calculation of electromagnetic waves in unidirectional on-chip silicon optical diodes. An original optical diode, designed by Wang et. al. [Opt. Express. 19, 26948-26955 (2011)], is based on ...

Simulation of Carbon Nanotube Growth
(2013-05-13)The basic understanding of the underlying techniques of growing Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) with a specific chirality is still obscure and needs to be understood so as to properly harness its potentials. Using both Classical ...

Electro-Magnetic Duality, Magnetic monopoles and Topological Insulators
(2013-05-13)The Maxwell equations of electrodynamics acquire an additional symmetry if one assumes the existence of hypothetical particles-magnetic monopoles, carrying a magnetic charge. The additional internal symmetry is the ...

Femtosecond Laser Surface Texturing of Materials for Various Applications
(2013-05-13)Femtosecond lasers represent an electromagnetic field with field intensities approaching and even exceeding atomic binding field. When irradiated on a target, the material responses change from linear to nonlinear within ...

Nonlinear Effect in-flow in Porous Duct
(2013-05-13)In general, it is assumed in some non viscous flows that the flow velocity is constant at a cross-section. In this thesis, If we impose more realistic boundary conditions by, for example, introducing viscosity,and suction ...

Influence of Molecular Polarizability on the Active Layer of Organic Photovoltaic Cells: A case study of Poly(3-hexylthiophene)
(2013-05-13)The complexity of the microstructure of the active layer in organic photo- voltaics (OPVs) poses a unique challenge in improving the efficiency of OPV devices. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulation provides a direct route ...

An Algorithm for Solutions of Hammerstein Integral Equations with Monotone Operators
(2016-06-07)Let X be a uniformly convex and uniformly smooth real Banach space with dual space X ∗ . Let F : X → X ∗ and K : X ∗ → X be bounded monotone mappings such that the Hammerstein equation u + KF u = 0 has a solution in X. An ...

Maximal Monotone Operators on Hilbert Spaces and Applications
(2016-05)Let H be a real Hilbert space and A : D(A) ⊂ H → H be an unbounded, linear, self-adjoint, and maximal monotone operator. The aim of this thesis is to solve u 0 (t) + Au(t) = 0, when A is linear but not bounded. The classical ...

A Naive Finite difference Approximations for Singularly Perturbed Parabolic Reaction-Diffusion problems
(2016-06-07)In this thesis, we treated a Standard Finite Difference Scheme for a singularly perturbed parabolic reaction-diffusion equation. We proved that the Standard Finite Difference Scheme is not a robust technique for solving ...

A Strong Convergence Theorem for Zeros of Bounded Maximal Monotone Mappings in Banach Spaces with Applications
(2016-06-07)Let E be a uniformly convex and uniformly smooth real Banach space and E ∗ be its dual. Let A : E → 2 E be a bounded maximal monotone map. Assume that A −1 (0) 6 = ∅. A new iterative sequence is constructed which converges ...

On J-fixed points of J-pseudocontractions with applications
(2016-06-07)Let E be a real normed space with dual space E ∗ and let A : E → 2 E be any map. Let J : E → 2 E be the normalized duality map on E. A new class of mappings, J-pseudocontractive maps, is introduced and the notion of J-fixed ...

Why Classical Finite difference Approximations fail for a singularly perturbed System of Convection-Diffusion Equations
(2016-06-07)We consider classical Finite Difference Scheme for a system of singularly perturbed convection-diffusion equations coupled in their reactive terms, we prove that the classical SFD scheme is not a robust technique for solving ...

Quadratic forms with Applications
(2013-05-27)The scope of Quadratic Form Theory is historically wide although it usually appears almost as an afterthought when needed to solve a variety of problems such as the classification of Hessian matrices in finite dimensional ...

Existence and Uniqueness of Solutions of Integral Equations of Hammerstein Type
(2013-05-27)Let X be a real Banach space, X ∗ its conjugate dual space. Let A be a monotone angle-bounded continuous linear mapping of X into X ∗ with constant of angle-boundedness c ≥ 0. Let N be a hemicontinuous (possibly non-linear) ...
