Spectral methods are very efficient numerical algorithms for solving partial differential equations in relatively simple geometries. The numerical errors introduced by spectral algorithms typically ...

Infrared spectroscopy is a valuable method for the detection and identification of organic coating materials. The vibrational bands that appear in the infrared spectra provide information on chemical ...
