This is one of the most fully realised fictitious environments that gaming has ever seen, a plague-ridden Victorian hellhole of warring artistocrats, moustached gangsters and blood-vomiting paupers.
In a piece published at the start of the financial crisis, the late political essayist Peter Gowan called it "Wall Street's Guantánamo", the place where the likes of Lehman Brothers could escape the relative rigours of US law and fully indulge in the fictitious capital of credit default swaps and collateralised debt obligations.
The set of differential equations is discretized using a fully implicit-fully coupled fictitious domain/finite element approach, avoiding numerical instabilities that may arise from explicit integration.
If the latter approach is applied then the fictitious domain formulation becomes fully explicit with respect to the rigid body constraint and therefore, the corresponding numerical procedure is much cheaper.
A fictitious-domain based formulation for fully resolved simulations of arbitrary shaped, freely moving rigid particles in unsteady flows is presented.
A disadvantage of exercises, in comparison with actual events, is that they are fictitious and constructed; thus, they can never fully address phenomena that arise at the actual events.
Liberia called for the 100-nation Assembly to "vote a motion of censure against the government of South Africa or its delegate for a statement here today which was offensive, fictitious and erroneous and of which the Assembly fully disapproves".
We present a three-dimensional (3D) and fully Eulerian approach to capturing the interaction between two fluids and moving rigid structures by using the fictitious domain and volume-of-fluid (VOF) methods.
In fact, Novilla seems scarcely to exist, a sketchily imagined, fictitious place that might well be a bare, Beckett stage on which actors are reading scripts they don't fully understand, at the bequest of a director who remains elusive and seems to have relinquished the very responsibility of direction.
