A center manifold technique for tracing viscous waves

Volterra discrete equations: summability of the fundamental matrix.

Conditions are proven which assure the summability of the first difference of the fundamental matrix of nonconvolution Volterra discrete equations. These conditions are applied to the \st analysis of some linear methods for solving Volterra integral equations of nonconvolution type.

Inference of gene networks-application to Bifidobacterium

Motivation: The reliable and reproducible identification of gene interaction networks represents one of the grand challenges of both modern molecular biology and computational sciences. Approaches based on careful collection of literature data and network topological analysis, applied to…

Experimental and numerical investigation of propeller loads in off-design conditions

The understanding of the performance of a propeller in realistic operative conditions is nowadays a key issue for improving design techniques, guaranteeing safety and continuity of operation at sea, and reducing maintenance costs. In this paper, a summary of the recent research carried out at CNR-…

Boundary conditions for thermal lattice Boltzmann simulations

Screw dislocations in periodic media: Variational coarse graining of the discrete elastic energy

We study the asymptotic behavior, as the lattice spacing ? tends to zero, of the discrete elastic energy induced by topological singularities in an inhomogeneous ? periodic medium within a two-dimensional model for screw dislocations in the square lattice. We focus on the |log?| regime which, as…

Nuclear quantum effects in electronic (non)adiabatic dynamics

Trajectory-based approaches to excited-state, nonadiabatic dynamics are promising simulation techniques to describe the response of complex molecular systems upon photo-excitation. They provide an approximate description of the coupled quantum dynamics of electrons and nuclei trying to access…

The numerical treatment of hypersingular integral equations

Collocation and quadrature methods for singular integro-differential equations of Prandtl's type are studied in weighted Sobolev spaces as well as in weighted spaces of continuous functions. A fast algorithm based on the quadrature method is proposed. Convergence results and error estimates are…
