The RBF-FD and RBF-FDTD Methods for Solving Time-Domain Electrical Transient Problems in Power Systems by Duc-Quang Vu, Nhat-Nam Nguyen, Phan-Tu Vu

“…RBFs such as Gaussian (GA), Multiquadric (MQ), Inverse Quadric (IQ), and Inverse Multiquadric (IMQ) are used in these numerical methods to formulate the central finite difference approximations of the first- and second-order derivatives of a function. The algorithm of selecting “optimal” shape parameters for our basis functions is also applied, specifically to increase the accuracy of the suggested methods with regard to high accuracy needs. …”

Cultural Models of the Body Parts Hand and Hair in Hungarian Archaic Prayers by Judit Baranyiné Kóczy

“…The corpus of the study is Erdélyi’s collection of 321 archaic prayers (2013 [1976]), from which all representations of ‘hand’ and ‘hair’ are selected and conceptually analysed. The results show that 1) the figurative functions of the two body parts partly correspond to metaphors which are also found in secular Hungarian (e.g. hand for help, hand for care, hand for action); however, in the archaic prayers, they often take form in specific meanings (hand for help to get into heaven, hand for providence, hand for control); 2) their figurative uses strongly rely on cultural schemas which are attached to people and events. …”
