(2023-06)Crowd simulation focuses on modeling the movements and behaviors of large groups of people. This area of study has become increasingly important because of its several applications in various fields such as urban planning, safety, and entertainment. ... -
(Society of Exploration Geophysicists, 1993-07)Cross-borehole tomography suffers from a well-known problem of data incompleteness: the limited ray coverage dictated by the poor experimental geometry implies that certain features of the velocity field are not determined by the data. Construction of ...

(Frontiers Media SA, 2018-11-13)Mt. Öræfajökull is one of the most dangerous volcanoes in Iceland with potential for a VEI6 eruption and the generation of many severe associated hazards. It is not a frequently erupting volcano with two eruptions in the last 1100 years, in 1362 and ...

(2016-01)Liquid dominated reservoirs are a common type of hydrothermal reservoirs. They consist of fractured rock and reservoir fluid which may obey Darcy’s law. Steam can form in such reservoirs either through heat input which causes temperature increase or ...
-
(MDPI AG, 2020-10-29)This paper is motivated by the notion that coupling systems allows for mitigating the failure of individual ones. We present a novel approach to determining asymptotic stability and robustness of a network consisting of coupled dynamical systems, where ...
-
(University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Physical Sciences, 2021-06)Methods for identifying the mechanism and estimating the rate of chemical reactions are presented and evaluated for a wide range of systems, using both classical and quantum mechanical description of the atomic nuclei. In the classical case, the minimum ...

(Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), 2019-07-16)In this work we compute high-coverage hydrogen adsorption energies and geometries on the stepped platinum surfaces Pt(211) and Pt(533) which contain a (100)-step type and the Pt(221) and Pt(553) surface with a (111) step edge. We discuss these results ...
-
(MDPI AG, 2019-07-25)We recall theoretical studies on transient transport through interacting mesoscopic systems. It is shown that a generalized master equation (GME) written and solved in terms of many-body states provides the suitable formal framework to capture both the ...
-
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-06-12)In this paper, we extend and analyze a Bayesian hierarchical spatiotemporal model for physical systems. A novelty is to model the discrepancy between the output of a computer simulator for a physical process and the actual process values with a ...
-
(University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering, 2023)Snow resources worldwide are undergoing extensive changes in response to widespread and rapid changing of the global climate. These resources are vital in many areas and changes to them have and will continue to impact human societies and ecosystems ...
-
(MDPI AG, 2022-02-21)This paper evaluates the photovoltaic (PV) module operating temperature’s relation to efficiency via a numerical heat transfer model. The literature reports that higher PV module operating temperatures impact PV module efficiency. There are dozens of ...
-
(University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering, 2019-09)As the Arctic Circle opens up due to the effects of global warming, the surrounding regions, and in particular the subarctic zone, experience both climatic and societal changes, which makes it imperative to understand the existing ecosystems. Lake ...
-
(University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Industrial Engineering, Mechanical Engineering and Computer Science, 2020-10-22)The main target of this thesis is to use density functional theory-based simulations to study electrochemical CO2 and N2 reductions by employing a recent theoretical model of an electrochemical solid-liquid interface. This model is used to investigate ...
-
(MDPI AG, 2019-07-09)In order to minimize the number of evaluations of high-fidelity (fine) model in the optimization process, to increase the optimization speed, and to improve optimal solution accuracy, a robust and computational-efficient multi-fidelity local surrogate-model ...
-
(University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Earth Sciences, 2019)This dissertation describes the research results from applying regional climate models (RCMs) to simulate the near-past and future evolution of Vatnajökull, the largest ice cap in Iceland, and investigate the sensitivity of ablation to albedo and spring ...
-
(IEEE, 2022-02-16)Sound localization is the ability of humans to determine the source direction of sounds that they hear. Emulating this capability in virtual environments can have various societally relevant applications enabling more realistic virtual acoustics. We ...
