Abstract: We study sequences (both cyclic and randomized) of idempotent completely positive trace-preserving quantum maps, and show how they asymptotically converge to the intersection of their fixed ...

This comprehensive compendium presents the detailed theory, implementation and application of finite element analysis via heavily commented Matlab scripts. The book includes over 110 examples of the ...

The finite element method (FEM) is a numerical method for solving problems of engineering and mathematical physics. Typical problem areas of interest include structural analysis, heat transfer, fluid ...
