In this work, we exploit the integration of an advanced synthetic aperture radar (SAR) interferometry technique and the application of the finite-element method for the assessment and the interpretation of a localized subsidence phenomenon that took place within a specific area of Lisbon, Portugal… |

We present a novel approach to the system inversion problem for linear, scalar (i.e. single-input, single-output, or SISO) plants. The problem is formulated as a constrained optimization program, whose objective function is the transition time between the initial and the final values of the system'… |

A new methodology for the mapping of intertidal terrain morphology is presented. It is based on the use of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images and the temporal correlation between the SAR backscatter intensity and the water level on the intertidal zone. The proposed methodology does not require… |

We analytically compute, to the eight-and-a-half post-Newtonian order, and to linear order in the mass ratio, the radial potential describing (within the effective one-body formalism) the gravitational interaction of two bodies, thereby extending previous analytic results. These results are… |

A product quadrature rule, based on the filtered de la Vallée Poussin polynomial approximation, is proposed for evaluating the finite weighted Hilbert transform in [-1,1]. Convergence results are stated in weighted uniform norm for functions belonging to suitable Besov type subspaces. Several… |

The establishment of thermal diffusion in an Ar-Kr Lennard-Jones mixture is investigated via dynamical non equilibrium molecular dynamics [G. Ciccotti, G. Jacucci, Phys. Rev. Lett. 35, 789 (1975)]. We observe, in particular, the evolution of the density and temperature fields of the system… |

We assess the Lattice Boltzmann (LB) method versus centered finite-difference schemes for the solution of the advection-diffusion-reaction (ADR) Fisher's equation. It is found that the LB method performs significantly better than centered finite-difference schemes, a property we attribute to the… |
