    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    No full text
    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    No full text
    We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more sophisticated methods

    Efficient p-Multigrid Based Solvers for Isogeometric Analysis on Multipatch Geometries

    No full text
    Isogeometric Analysis can be considered as the natural extension of the Finite Element Method (FEM) to higher-order spline based discretizations simplifying the treatment of complex geometries with curved boundaries. Finding a solution of the resulting linear systems of equations efficiently remains, however, a challenging task. Recently, p-multigrid methods have been considered [18], in which a multigrid hierarchy is constructed based on different approximation orders p instead of mesh widths h as it would be the case in classical h-multigrid schemes [8]. The use of an Incomplete LU-factorization as a smoother within the p-multigrid method has shown to lead to convergence rates independent of both h and p for single patch geometries [19]. In this paper, the focus lies on the application of the aforementioned p-multigrid method on multipatch geometries having a C0-continuous coupling between the patches. The use of ILUT as a smoother within p-multigrid methods leads to convergence rates that are essentially independent of h and p, but depend mildly on the number of patches.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository ‘You share, we take care!’ – Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Numerical Analysi

    An IGA Framework for PDE-Based Planar Parameterization on Convex Multipatch Domains

    No full text
    The first step towards applying isogeometric analysis techniques to solve PDE problems on a given domain consists in generating an analysis-suitable mapping operator between parametric and physical domains with one or several patches from no more than a description of the boundary contours of the physical domain. A subclass of the multitude of the available parameterization algorithms are those based on the principles of Elliptic Grid Generation (EGG) which, in their most basic form, attempt to approximate a mapping operator whose inverse is composed of harmonic functions. The main challenge lies in finding a formulation of the problem that is suitable for a computational approach and a common strategy is to approximate the mapping operator by means of solving a PDE-problem. PDE-based EGG is well-established in classical meshing and first generalization attempts to spline-based descriptions (as is mandatory in IgA) have been made. Unfortunately, all of the practically viable PDE-based approaches impose certain requirements on the employed spline-basis, in particular global C≥1-continuity.This paper discusses an EGG-algorithm for the generation of planar parameterizations with locally reduced smoothness (i.e., with support for locally only C0-continuous bases). A major use case of the proposed algorithm is that of multipatch parameterizations, made possible by the support of C0-continuities. This paper proposes a specially-taylored solution algorithm that exploits many characteristics of the PDE-problem and is suitable for large-scale applications. It is discussed for the single-patch case before generalizing its concepts to multipatch settings. This paper is concluded with three numerical experiments and a discussion of the results.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository ‘You share, we take care!’ – Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Numerical Analysi

    High-Order Isogeometric Methods for Compressible Flows: II: Compressible Euler Equations

    No full text
    This work extends the high-resolution isogeometric analysis approach established in chapter “High-Order Isogeometric Methods for Compressible Flows. I: Scalar Conservation Laws” (Jaeschke and Möller: High-order isogeometric methods for compressible flows. I. Scalar conservation Laws. In: Proceedings of the 19th International Conference on Finite Elements in Flow Problems (FEF 2017)) to the equations of gas dynamics. The group finite element formulation is adopted to obtain an efficient assembly procedure for the standard Galerkin approximation, which is stabilized by adding artificial viscosities proportional to the spectral radius of the Roe-averaged flux-Jacobian matrix. Excess stabilization is removed in regions with smooth flow profiles with the aid of algebraic flux correction (Kuzmin et al., Flux-corrected transport, chapter Algebraic flux correction II. Compressible Flow Problems. Springer, Berlin, 2012). The underlying principles are reviewed and it is shown that linearized FCT-type flux limiting (Kuzmin, J Comput Phys 228(7):2517–2534, 2009) originally derived for nodal low-order finite elements ensures positivity-preservation for high-order B-Spline discretizations.Accepted author manuscriptNumerical Analysi

    Will man ein Hieratogramm aus Georg Möllers hieratischer Paläografie  innerhalb seines originalen Kotext überprüfen, so zeigt sich, dass das Auffinden der Belegstellen, die Möller angibt, oft durch verschiedene Faktoren erschwert ist. In seinen paläografischen Tabellen listet er spaltenweise verschiedene Textträger auf, die er durch spezielle Siglen kennzeichnet (Abb. 1). Dabei nutzt er zum Einen Siglen, die sich auf zur Zeit der Drucklegung noch unpublizierte Quellen beziehen, zum Anderen b..
