We study by computer simulations the dynamics of a droplet of passive, isotropic fluid, embedded in a polar active gel. The latter represents a fluid of active force dipoles, which exert either contractile or extensile stresses on their surroundings, modelling for instance a suspension of… |

An algorithm for computing the solution of indefinite least squares problems
and of indefinite least squares problems with equality constrained is presented.
Such problems arise when solving total least squares problems and in
H infinity-smoothing.
The proposed algorithm relies only on stable… |

For kernels zi which are positive and integrable we show that the operator g bar right arrow J(v)g = integral(x)(0) v(x-s)g(s)ds on a finite time interval enjoys a regularizing effect when applied to Holder continuous and Lebesgue functions and a "contractive" effect when applied to Sobolev… |

Motivation: Highly Active AntiRetroviral Therapies (HAART) can pro-
long life significantly to people infected by HIV since, although unable
to eradicate the virus, they are quite effective in maintaining control of
the infection. However, since HAART have several undesirable side
effects, it… |

In this work we have studied in situ the formation and growth of calcium phosphate (CaP) nanoparticles (NPs) in the presence of three calcium-binding carboxylate molecules having different affinities for Ca2+ ions: citrate (Cit), hydroxycitrate (CitOH), and glutarate (Glr). The formation of CaP NPs… |

In an attempt to study the accuracy and utility of 'coarse grained' models for methane-clathrate systems, molecular-dynamics simulations were run for three different potential models. One was fully atomistic of TIP4P water and fully atomistic methane, the next model was atomistic SPC water and… |

Background: High-throughput (omic) data have become more widespread in both quantity and frequency of use, thanks to technological advances, lower costs and higher precision. Consequently, computational scientists are confronted by two parallel challenges: on one side, the design of efficient… |
