We investigate the non-equilibrium hydrodynamic effects on the reactivity of a nanoporous catalytic sample. Numerical simulations using the Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) show that non-equilibrium effects enhance the reactivity of the porous sample, in agreement with theoretical predictions [1]. In… |

The statistics of velocity differences between pairs of heavy inertial point particles suspended in an incompressible turbulent flow is studied and found to be extremely intermittent. The problem is particularly relevant to the estimation of the efficiency of collisions among heavy particles in… |

We study the numerical approximation of viscosity solutions for
Parabolic Integro-Differential Equations (PIDE). Similar models arise
in option pricing, to generalize the Black-Scholes equation, when the
processes which generate the underlying stock returns may contain both
a continuous part and… |

Given (Formula presented.), we discuss the embedding of (Formula presented.) in (Formula presented.). In particular, for (Formula presented.) we deduce its compactness on all open sets (Formula presented.) on which it is continuous. We then relate, for all q up the fractional Sobolev conjugate… |

We obtain a comparison result for solutions to nonlinear fully anisotropic elliptic problems by means of anisotropic symmetrization. As consequence we deduce a priori estimates for norms of the relevant solutions. |

Dispersing colloidal particles into liquid crystals provides a promising avenue to build a novel class of materials, with potential applications, among others, as photonic crystals, biosensors, metamaterials and new generation liquid crystal devices. Understanding the physics and dynamical… |

The Voronoi diagrams are an important tool having theoretical and practical applications in a large number of fields. We present a new procedure, implemented as a set of CUDA kernels, which detects, in a general and efficient way, topological changes in case of dynamic Voronoi diagrams whose… |
