We study the behavior of massless Dirac particles in the vacuum C-metric spacetime, representing the nonlinear superposition of the Schwarzschild black hole solution and the Rindler flat spacetime associated with uniformly accelerated observers. Under certain conditions, the C-metric can be… |

A hollow-fiber enzyme reactor, operating under isothermal and nonisothermal
conditions, was built employing a polypropylene hollow fiber onto which â-galactosidase
was immobilized. Hexamethylenediamine and glutaraldehyde were used as spacer
and coupling agent, respectively. Glucose production was… |

The effect of a small gravitomagnetic monopole on (accelerated) circular orbits in the equatorial plane of the Taub-NUT spacetime is compared to the corresponding (accelerated) orbits pushed slightly off the equatorial plane in the absense of the monopole (Schwarzschild spacetime). |

This work presents a microscale approach for simulating the dielectrophoresis assembly of polarizable particles under an external electric field. The model is shown to capture interesting dynamical and topological features, such as the formation of chains of particles and their incipient… |

Based on the past twenty-five years of lattice Boltzmann research, we venture into a far-flung prediction for the next twenty-five, with past and future privileged over the present state of affairs. Copyright (C) EPLA, 2015 |

We report recent results from a high-resolution numerical study of fluid particles transported by a fully developed turbulent flow. Single-particle trajectories were followed for a time range spanning more than three decades, from less than a tenth of the Kolmogorov timescale up to one large-eddy… |

This work is concerned with the semiclassical approximation of the Schro¨dinger-Poisson equation modeling ballistic transport in a 1D periodic potential by means of WKB techniques. It is derived by considering the mean-field limit of a N-body quantum problem, then K-multivalued solutions are… |

We propose a numerical method for approximating integro-differential equations arising in age-of-infection epidemic models. The method is based on a non-standard finite differences approximation of the integral term appearing in the equation. The study of convergence properties and the analysis of… |

We investigate the role of hydrodynamic interactions on the decision-making and leader-identification processes within a group of fifty small-size active individuals, immersed in a viscous fluid at very low Reynolds number, . A fraction of the individuals is informed about the spatial location of… |
