This work gives results of numerical simulation of a superconducting magnetic focusing system. While modeling this system, special care was taken to achieve approximation accuracy over the condition u(∞)=0 by using Richardson method. The work presents the results of comparison of the magnetic field calculated distribution with measurements of the field performed on a modified magnet SP-40 of “MARUSYA” physical installation. This work also presents some results of numeric analysis of magnetic systems of “MARUSYA” physical installation with the purpose to study an opportunity of designing magnetic systems with predetermined characteristics of the magnetic field.

Numerical calculations of structures and vibrational spectra of small water clusters are performed by solution of the molecular Schrodinger equation in the density functional theory framework using B3LYP and X3LYP hybrid functionals. Spectral features and evolution of hydrogen bond properties in clusters with their size increasing are discussed. The vibrotational Hamiltonian parameters and Fermi and Darling-Dennison anharmonic resonances in small water oligomers are determined. Obtained results may be used in quantum mechanics/molecular dynamics simulations of water and processes in active site of enzyme.

Charge transfer in DNA is simulated by a discrete Holstein model «quantum particle + classical site chain + interaction». Thermostat temperature is taken into account as stochastic force, which acts on classical sites (Langevin equation). Thus dynamics of charge migration along the chain is described by ODE system with stochastic right-hand side. To integrate the system numerically, algorithms of order 1 or 2 are usually applied. We developed «mixed» algorithm having 4th order of accuracy for fast «quantum» variables (note that in quantum subsystem the condition «sum of probabilities of charge being on site is time-constant» must be held), and 2nd order for slow classical variables, which are affecting by stochastic force. The algorithm allows us to calculate trajectories on longer time intervals as compared to standard algorithms. Model calculations of polaron disruption in homogeneous chain caused by temperature fluctuations are given as an example.

The difference scheme for numerical solution of a time-dependant system of two Schrödinger equations with the operator of a spin-orbit interaction for a two-component spinor wave function is offered on the basis of a split method for a time-dependant Schrödinger equations. The computer simulation of the external neutrons’ wave functions evolution with different values of the full moment projection upon internuclear axis and probabilities of their transfer are executed for head-on collisions of ¹⁸O and ⁵⁸Ni nuclei.

Langevin Dynamics, Monte Carlo, and all-atom Molecular Dynamics simulations in implicit solvent require a reliable source of pseudorandom numbers generated at each step of calculation. We present the two main approaches for implementation of pseudorandom number generators on a GPU. In the first approach, inherent in CPU-based calculations, one PRNG produces a stream of pseudorandom numbers in each thread of execution, whereas the second approach builds on the ability of different threads to communicate, thus, sharing random seeds across the entire device. We exemplify the use of these approaches through the development of Ran2, Hybrid Taus, and Lagged Fibonacci algorithms. As an application-based test of randomness, we carry out LD simulations of N independent harmonic oscillators coupled to a stochastic thermostat. This model allows us to assess statistical quality of pseudorandom numbers. We also profile performance of these generators in terms of the computational time, memory usage, and the speedup factor (CPU/GPU time).

We study excitation of oscillations in the stochastic gene systems with time-delayed feedback loop during transcription. The oscillations arise due to interaction noise and time delay even when deterministic counterpart of the system exhibits stationary behaviour. This effect becomes important when degree-of-freedom of a system is not high, and role of fluctuations becomes principal. The analytical solution of master-equation is obtained. The results of numerical simulations are presented.

The paper describes the results of computer simulation of time-dependent temperature fields arising in polar dielectrics irradiated by focused electron bunches with average electron energy when analyzing with electron microscopy techniques. The mathematical model was based on solving several-dimensional nonstationary heat conduction equation with use of numerical finite element method. The approximation of thermal source was performed taking into account the estimation of initial electron distribution determined by Monte-Carlo simulation of electron trajectories. The simulation program was designed in Matlab. The geometrical modeling and calculation results demonstrated the main features of model sample heating by electron beam were presented at the given experimental parameters as well as source approximation.

The results of computer simulation of deformation behavior of bone fragment at axial compression, containing compact and spongy layers of different density, are presented. The result of calculations show that changing of prevailing type of deformation of compression of bone sample on deformation of bend and vice versa is possible at densities change of his spongy constituent and compact constituent

In this paper the dynamic elasticity problem of the simultaneous normal and tangential impact on the half-space is solved. This problem simulates the oblique incidence of meteorite on the Earth’s surface. The surface Rayleigh wave is investigated. The resulting solution is used as an external effect on the high-rise building, located at some distance from the spot of falling for the safety and stability assessment of its structure. Numerical experiments were made based on the finite element software package STARK ES. Upper floors amplitudes of the selected object were calculated under such dynamic effects. Also a systematic comparison with the results at the foundation vibrations, relevant to  standard a 8-point earthquake accelerograms, was made.

An algorithm of applied problem solving was described to calculate electrical characteristics of electrical field effects in ferroelectrics electron-beam charged. The algorithm was based on implementation of the deterministic model using finite element method as well as taking into account Monte-Carlo simulation results of electron transport. The program application was developed to perform computing experiments.
