Parkinson's disease (PD) is the neurological disorder showing the greatest rise in prevalence from 1990 to 2016. Despite clinical definition criteria and a tremendous effort to develop objective biomarkers, precise diagnosis of PD is still unavailable at early stage. In recent years, an increasing… |

A shear-improved Smagorinsky model is introduced based on recent results concerning shear effects in wall-bounded turbulence by Toschi et al. (2000). The Smagorinsky eddy-viscosity is modified subtracting the magnitude of the mean shear from the magnitude of the instantaneous resolved strain-rate… |

The numerical solution of reaction-diffusion systems modelling predator-prey dynamics using implicit-symplectic (IMSP) schemes is relatively new. When applied to problems with chaotic dynamics they perform well, both in terms of computational effort and accuracy. However, until the current paper, a… |

Background: Computational biology contributes to a variety of areas related to life sciences and, due to the growing impact of translational medicine - the scientific approach to medicine in tight relation with basic science, it is becoming an important player in clinical-related areas. In this… |

We describe the methods employed for the generation of possible scenarios for term structure evolution. The problem originated as a request from the Italian Ministry of Economy and Finance to find an optimal strategy for the issuance of Public Debt securities. The basic idea is to split the… |

The classic Brusselator model consists of four reactions in- volving six components A, B, D, E, X, Y. In a typical run, the final products D and E are removed instantly, while, the con- centrations of the reactants A and B are kept constant. Then, the classic Brusselator model consisting of two… |

A reaction-diffusion model, known as the Sel'kov-Schnakenberg model, is considered. The nonlinear stability of the constant steady state is studied by using a special Liapunov functional and a maximum principle for regular solutions. |
