Tree-cotree decomposition of isogeometric mortared spaces in H(curl) on multi-patch domains

Rafael Vazquez Hernandez, Bernard Kapidani

When applying isogeometric analysis to engineering problems, one often deals with multi-patch spline spaces that have incompatible discretisations, e.g. in the case of moving objects. In such cases mortaring has been shown to be advantageous. This contribu ...

Evidence for a Magnetic Seebeck Effect

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Sylvain Bréchet, Francesco Antonio Vetrò, Elisa Papa

The irreversible thermodynamics of a continuous medium with magnetic dipoles predicts that a temperature gradient in the presence of magnetization waves induces a magnetic induction field, which is the magnetic analog of the Seebeck effect. This thermal gr ...
