Lattice Fokker-Planck equation

A lattice version of the Fokker-Planck equation is introduced. The resulting numerical method is illustrated through the calculation of the electric conductivity of a one-dimensional charged fluid at zero and finite-temperature.

Spin precession in the Schwarzschild spacetime: circular orbits

We study the behavior of nonzero rest mass spinning test particles moving along circular orbits in the Schwarzschild spacetime in the case in which the components of the spin tensor are allowed to vary along the orbit, generalizing some previous work.

Some properties of the asymptotic location of poles of Padè approximants to noisy rational functions, relevant for modal analysis

In this paper, the modal analysis model, made up by a linear combination of complex exponential functions, is considered. Padè approximants to the Z-transform of a noisy sample are then considered, and the asymptotic locus of their poles is studied. It turns out that this locus is strongly related…

Nondestructive evaluation of spatially varying internal heat transfer coefficients in a tube

We derive a rule for the reconstruction of the internal heat transfer coefficient hint of a pipe, from temperature maps collected on the external face. The pipe is subjected to internal heating by connecting two electrodes to the external surface. To estimate hint we apply the perturbation theory…

Estimate of traffic emissions through multiscale second order models with heterogeneous data

In this paper we propose a multiscale traffic model, based on the family of Generic Second Order Models, which integrates multiple trajectory data into the velocity function. This combination of a second order macroscopic model with microscopic information allows us to reproduce significant…

On the role of specific drug binding in modelling arterial eluting stents

In this paper we consider drug binding in the arterialwall following delivery by a drug-eluting stent. Whilst it is now generally accepted that a non-linear saturable reversible binding model is required to properly describe the binding process, the precise form of the binding model varies between…

Relative rearrangement and Lebesgue spaces L^{p()} with variable exponent

We apply the techniques of monotone and relative rearrangements to the non rearrangement invariant spaces Lp(·) (? ) with variable exponent. In particular, we show that the maps u ? L p( ·) (? ) -> k(t )u* ? L p * (·)(0, meas? ) and u ? L p( ·) (? ) -> u* ? Lp* (·) (0, meas? ) are locally ?-…
