Estimation of the postmortem interval by non-linear programming in conditions of changing ambient temperature by G. V. Nedugov

“…The aim of the study is to evaluate the possibilities of determining the postmortem interval by non-linear programming in conditions of changing ambient temperature. A computer simulation of the cooling of the core of a corpse under conditions of linearly varying ambient temperature was performed and the possibilities of determining the postmortem interval with changes in the ambient temperature regime by non-linear programming were analyzed. …”

Calculating response functions of coupled oscillators using quantum phase estimation by Sven Danz, Mario Berta, Stefan Schröder, Pascal Kienast, Frank K. Wilhelm, Alessandro Ciani

“…We study the problem of estimating frequency response functions of systems of coupled, classical harmonic oscillators using a quantum computer. The functional form of these response functions can be mapped to a corresponding eigenproblem of a Hermitian matrix H, thus suggesting the use of quantum phase estimation. …”
