Reasoning, solving mathematical equations, or planning written and spoken sentences all must factor in stimuli perceptual properties. Indeed, thinking processes are inspired by and subsequently fitted to concrete objects and situations. It is therefore reasonable to expect that the mental representations evoked when people solve these seemingly abstract tasks should interact with the properties of the manipulated stimuli. Here, we investigated the mental representations evoked by conjunction and disjunction expressions in language-picture matching tasks. We hypothesised that, if these representations have been derived using key Gestalt principles, reasoners should use perceptual compatibility to gauge the goodness of fit between conjunction/disjunction descriptions (e.g., the purple and/or the green) and corresponding binary visual displays. Indeed, the results of three experimental studies demonstrate that reasoners associate conjunction descriptions with perceptually-dependent stimuli and disjunction descriptions with perceptually-independent stimuli, where visual dependency status follows the key Gestalt principles of common fate, proximity, and similarity.

Parallel processing of two-dimensional euler equations for compressible flows
Doǧru, K.; Aksel, M.h.; Tuncer, İsmail Hakkı (2008-12-01)
A parallel implementation of a previously developed finite volume algorithm for the solution of two-dimensional, unsteady, compressible Euler equations is given. The conservative form of the Euler equations is discretized with a second order accurate, one-step Lax-Wendroff scheme. Local time stepping is utilized in order to accelerate the convergence. For the parallel implementation of the method, the solution domain is partitioned into a number of subdomains to be distributed to separate processors for par...
Nonautonomous Bifurcations in Nonlinear Impulsive Systems
Akhmet, Marat (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2020-01-01)
In this paper, we study existence of the bounded solutions and asymptotic behavior of an impulsive Bernoulli equations. Nonautonomous pitchfork and transcritical bifurcation scenarios are investigated. An examples with numerical simulations are given to illustrate our results.
On singular solutions of implicit second-order ordinary differential equations
Bhupal, Mohan Lal (2003-01-01)
In this note we discuss the notion of singular solutions of completely integrable implicit second-0rder ordinary differential equations. After restricting the class of admissible equations we give conditions under which singular solutions occur in 1-parameter families and as isolated objects. © 2003 by the University of Notre Dame.

Stochastic Discontinuous Galerkin Methods with Low-Rank Solvers for Convection Diffusion Equations
Çiloğlu, Pelin; Yücel, Hamdullah (2021-09-06)
To simulate complex kinds of behavior in physical systems, one makes predictions and hypotheses about certain outputs of interest with the help of simulation of mathematical models. However, due to the lack of knowledge or inherent variability in the model parameters, such real-problems formulated by mathematical models generally come with uncertainty concerning computed quantities. Therefore, the idea of uncertainty quantification (UQ) has become a powerful tool for modeling physical phenomena in the last ...
Second order perturbation theory in general relativity: Taub charges as integral constraints
Altas, Emel; Tekin, Bayram (American Physical Society (APS), 2019-05-01)
In a nonlinear theory, such as general relativity, linearized field equations around an exact solution are necessary but not sufficient conditions for linearized solutions. Therefore, the linearized field equations can have some solutions which do not come from the linearization of possible exact solutions. This fact can make the perturbation theory ill defined, which would be a problem both at the classical and semiclassical quantization level. Here we study the first and second order perturbation theory i...
