Flows on networks and complicated domains

Optimizing the dynamic behavior of wells and facilities with machine learning and agent negotiation techniques

The paper proposes an approach to deal with the day by day dynamic behaviour of Oil & Gas assets, providing support for optimized decisions on wells and facilities. The approach is based on: o A set of software agents, trained with a machine learning approach to understand the health status of…

Equilibrium Orbits of Particles Undergoing Poynting-Robertson Effect in Schwarzschild Spacetime

CFD Analysis of Propeller Performance in Oblique Flow

The present work is aimed to assess the capability of a numerical code based on the solution of the Reynolds averaged Navier--Stokes Equations for the study of propeller functioning in off design conditions; this aspect is becoming of central interest in naval hydrodynamics research because of its…

SCALABLE ANALYSIS AND RETRIEVAL OF POLARIMETRIC SAR DATA ON ELASTIC COMPUTING CLOUDS

Earth Observation (EO) mining systems aim at supporting efficient access and exploration of large volumes of image products. In this work, we address the problem of content-based image retrieval via example-based queries from Petabyte-scale EO data archives. To this end, we propose an interactive…

Vortex-Sound Generation and Thrust Unsteadiness in Aft-Finocyl Solid Rocket Motor

The generation of complex vorticity pattern in aft-finocyl solid rocket motors is inves- tigated in this paper by means of full-3D ILES CFD simulations with a high-order/low- dissipation class of centered numerical schemes with oscillation control and an immersed boundary treatment of the…

Perceptual-based color quantization

The paper presents a method for color quantization (CQ) which uses visual contrast for determining an image-dependent color palette. The proposed method selects image regions in a hierarchical way, according to the visual importance of their colors with respect to the whole image. The method is…

A mathematical model of Chagas disease infection predicts inhibition of the immune system

The protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruz causes the Chagas disease, which final outcome can be morbidity or death. The complexity of this infection is due to the many kinds of players involved in the immune response and to the variety of host cells targeted by the parasite. We built an ordinary…

Da guerrieri ad eroi immortali. Aristocrazie e segni del potere in Puglia e Basilicata tra VIII e V secolo a.C.

The deep relationships, already existing since the 8th century BC, with Etruscan and Greek culture have triggered in the indigenous communities of Apulia and Basilicata a series of socio-cultural dynamics that will lead to a fundamental stage of social differentiation, based no longer on the role…

Mathematical formulations and metaheuristics comparison for the Push-Tree Problem

The Push-Tree Problem is a recently addressed optimization problem, with the aim to minimize the total amount of traffic generated on information broadcasting networks by a compromise between the use of "push" and "pull" mechanisms. That is, the push-tree problem can be seen as a mixture of…
