Implantation of drug eluting stents following percutaneous trans-
luminal angioplasty has revealed a well established technique for treating occlusions caused by the atherosclerotic plaque. However, due to the risk of vascular
re-occlusion, other alternative therapeutic strategies of drug delivery… |

In this paper we present som eremarks about the Hilbert transform on the real line and its numerical approximation, in connection with its application in signal processing. |

In this paper the phase behavior and pattern formation in a sheared nonideal fluid under a periodic potential is studied. An isothermal two-dimensional formulation of a lattice Boltzmann scheme for a liquid-vapor system with the van der Waals equation of state is presented and validated. Shear is… |

In this paper we present algorithms for approximating real band-limited signals by multiple Gaussian Chirps. These algorithms do not rely on matching pursuit ideas. They are hierarchial and, at each stage, the number of terms in a given approximation depends only on the number of positive-valued… |

Internal waves describe the (linear) response of an incompressible sta- bly stratified fluid to small perturbations. The inclination of their group velocity with respect to the vertical is completely determined by their frequency. Therefore the reflection on a sloping boundary cannot follow… |

Spiral waves appear in many different contexts: excitable biological
tissues, fungi and amoebae colonies, chemical reactions, growing crystals, fluids
and gas eddies as well as in galaxies. While the existing theories explain the
presence of spirals in terms of nonlinear parabolic equations, in… |

Effective treatment of glioma and other central nervous system (CNS) diseases is hindered by the presence of the blood-brain barrier (BBB). A novel nano-delivery vehicle system composed of PLGA-lysoGM1/DOX micelles was developed to cross the BBB for CNS treatment. We have shown that doxorubicin (… |

We present a new numerical procedure to assess the plausibility of a subglacial lake in case of relative small/moderate extension and surging temperate icefield. In addition to the flat signal from Ground Penetrating Radar remote survey of the area, early indication of a likely subglacial lake,… |

We consider a rather simple algorithm to address the fascinating field of numerical extrapolation of (analytic) band-limited functions. It relies on two main elements: namely, the lower frequencies are treated by projecting the known part of the signal to be extended onto the space generated by ``… |
