The Hilbert transform of a function g, H(g) is an important tool in many mathematical fields. Expecially its numerical evaluation is often useful in some procedures for searcing solutions of the singular integral equations. In this context an approximation of (HV^alpha,beta,f;t), |t|1, where f is a continuous function in [-1,1] and v^alpha,beta, alpha,beta>-1 is a Jacobi weight, is required. In the last decade more then one paper appeared on this subject and among others we recall [1,2,3,4,5,14,15,20]. The procedure used in these papers can be described as follows.

Coalescence growth of droplets is a fundamental process for liquid cloud evolution. The initiation of collisions and coalescence occurs when a few droplets become large enough to fall. Gravitational collisions represent the most efficient mechanism for multi-disperse solutions, when droplets span a large variety of sizes. However, turbulence provides another mechanism for droplets coalescence, taking place also in the case of uniform condensational growth leading to narrow droplet-size spectra.

One of the greatest challenges in biomedicine is to get a unified view of observations made from the molecular up to the organism scale. Towards this goal, multiscale models have been highly instrumental in contexts such as the cardiovascular field, angiogenesis, neurosciences and tumour biology. More recently, such models are becoming an increasingly important resource to address immunological questions as well.

Experimental studies on vehicular traffic provide data on quantities like density, flux, and mean speed of the vehicles. However, the diagrams relating these variables (the fundamental and \emph{speed} diagrams) show some peculiarities not yet fully reproduced nor explained by mathematical models. In this paper, resting on the methods of kinetic theory, we introduce a new traffic model which takes into account the heterogeneous nature of the flow of vehicles along a road.

Distributions of heavy particles suspended in incompressible turbulent flows are investigated by means of high-resolution direct numerical simulations. It is shown that particles form fractal clusters in the dissipative range, with properties independent of the Reynolds number. Conversely, in the inertial range, the particle distribution is not scale-invariant. It is however shown that deviations from uniformity depends only on a rescaled contraction rate, and not on the local Stokes number given by dimensional analysis.

We present results from recent direct numerical simulations of heavy particle transport in homogeneous, isotropic, fully developed turbulence, with grid resolution up to 5123 and R? ? 185. By following the trajectories of millions of particles with different Stokes numbers, St ? [0.16 : 3.5], we are able to characterize in full detail the statistics of particle acceleration. We focus on the probability density function of the normalised acceleration a/arms and on the behaviour of their rootmean-squared acceleration arms as a function of both St and R?.

In this paper we analyze the performance of the three MIPAS (Michelson Interferometer for Passive Atmospheric Sounding) observation modes that sound the Upper-Troposphere/Lower-Stratosphere (UT/LS) region. The two-dimensional (2-D) tomographic retrieval approach is assumed to derive the atmospheric field of geophysical parameters. For each observation mode we have calculated the 2-D distribution of the information load quantifier relative to the main MIPAS targets.

Collocation and quadrature methods for Cauchy singular integral equations on an interval with variable coefficients are studied. Convergence rates are proved in weighted uniform and uniform norms.

We consider a class of integral equations of Volterra type with constant coefficients containing a logarithmic difference kernel. This class coincides for a=0 with the Symm's euqtion. We can transform the general integral equation into an equivalent singular equation of Cauchy type which allows us to give the explicit formula for the solution. The numerical method proposed in this paper consists in substituting this in the experrsion of the solution g.
