Jacobian-Free Newton Krylov Methods for Steady and Transient Neutron Transport Models by ZHANG Yangyi, ZHANG Tiancheng, ZHOU Xiafeng

“…Numerical results also show that the parallel solver called comeSn_JFNK can achieve an acceleration of over 10 times for KAIST-3A benchmark problems and approximately 30 times for C5G7-TD2 cases compared to the original parallel comeSn code using the traditional source iteration/power iteration methods. These solutions indicate that the JFNK methods offer significant acceleration for solving both steady-state and transient SN neutron transport models compared to traditional source iteration/power iteration methods. …”

Reconstructing the Economy: A Methodological Journey from the Surface to the Essence and Back by Peter Karl Fleissner

“…While mainstream econ- omists abstract from any links of the economy to human beings - replacing them by selfish machines maximizing their prof- its or individual utilities, and neglecting any deeper analysis of the basic constructions they use (like prices or money), heterodox economists try to look behind the surface, link them to certain periods of history and to the source of all value: humans are social beings and cannot exist without mutuality. …”
