Many approaches exist to remedy the "band gap problem" in Density Functional Theory (DFT) in which band gaps are severely underestimated. We recently proposed the ?-sol method [1], an adaptation of the ?SCF method towards solids, in which the fundamental gap is evaluated using ...

Genetic Algorithm Based Framework for Automation of Stochastic Modeling of Multi-Season Streamflows
2009-05-01

Synthetic streamflow data generation involves the synthesis of likely streamflow patterns that are statistically indistinguishable from the observed streamflow data. The various kinds of stochastic models adopted for multi-season streamflow generation in hydrology are: i) parametric models which hypothesize the form of the periodic dependence structure and the distributional form a priori ...

HYPERS: First Ever Multi-Dimensional Asynchronous Hybrid Simulations
2009-12-01

Hybrid (electron fluid, kinetic ion) simulations have recently emerged in large-scale laboratory (spheromak, FRC) and global magnetospheric studies with the goal of accurately predicting energetic particle transport in complex plasma/magnetic configurations. Multiple temporal scales associated with both plasma and magnetic field ...
