We consider a particular second-order integrodifferential boundary value problem
arising from the kinetic theory of dusty plasmas, and we provide information
on the existence and other qualitative properties of the solution that have been
essential in the numerical investigation. |

We consider two-dimensional zero-temperature systems of N particles to which we associate an energy of the form E[V](X):=?1?i<j?NV(|X(i)-X(j)|),where X(j) ? R represents the position of the particle j and V(r) ? R is the pairwise interaction energy potential of two particles placed at distance r… |

The identification of the basic mechanisms responsible for cardiovascular diseases stands as one of the most challenging problems in modern medical research including various mechanisms which encompass a broad spectrum of space and time scales. Major implications for clinical practice and pre-… |

We study the static and dynamical behavior of the contact line between two fluids and a solid plate by means of the Lattice Boltzmann method (LBM). The different fluid phases and their contact with the plate are simulated by means of standard Shan-Chen models. We investigate different regimes and… |

Sharp constants are exhibited in exponential inequalities corresponding to the limiting case of the Sobolev inequalities in Lorentz-Sobolev spaces of arbitrary order. |

Stabilized dense emulsions display a rich phenomenology connecting microstructure and rheology. In this work we study how an emulsion with a finite yield stress can be built via large-scale stirring. By gradually increasing the volume fraction of the dispersed minority phase, under the constant… |

We present a computational method for commodity hardware-based clinical cardiovascular diagnosis based on accurate simulation of cardiovascular blood flow. Our approach leverages the flexibility of the Lattice Boltzmann method to implementation on high-performance, commodity hardware, such as… |

The convergence quality of the cross-entropy (CE) optimizer relies critically on the mechanism meant for randomly generating data samples, in agreement with the inference drawn in the earlier works--the fast simulated annealing (FSA) and fast evolutionary programming (FEP). Since tracing a near-… |
