In this paper, some recent applications of the so-called Generalized Bernstein polynomials are collected. This polynomial sequence is constructed by means of the samples of a continuous function f on equispaced points of [0; 1] and depends on an additional parameter which can be suitable chosen in… |

The development of high-efficiency porous catalyst membranes critically depends on our understanding of where the majority of the chemical conversions occur within the porous structure. This requires mapping of chemical reactions and mass transport inside the complex nanoscale architecture of… |

We consider stochastic differential games with N players, linear-Gaussian dynamics in arbitrary state-space dimension, and long-time-average cost with quadratic running cost. Admissible controls are feedbacks for which the system is ergodic. We first study the existence of affine Nash equilibria by… |

In this work we introduce and study the strong generalized minimum label spanning tree (GMLST), a novel optimization problem defined on edge-labeled graphs. Given a label set associated to each edge of the input graph, the aim is to look for the spanning tree using the minimum number of labels.… |

A 'temporal analogue' of the standard Poynting-Robertson effect is analyzed as induced by a dust of particles (instead of a gas of photons) surrounding a Schwarzschild black hole. Test particles inside this cloud undergo acceleration effects due to the presence of a friction force, so that the fate… |

In this paper we propose a multiperiod optimization model based on the maximal covering location problem in order to support safety policies within urban areas. In particular, we focus on the field of car accidents control, by considering the problem of the optimal location of intersection safety… |

The dynamics and rheology of a vesicle confined in a channel under shear flow are studied at finite temperature. The effect of finite temperature on vesicle motion and system viscosity is investigated. A two-dimensional numerical model, which includes thermal fluctuations and is based on a… |

By means of mesoscopic numerical simulations of a model soft-glassy material, we investigate the role of boundary roughness on the flow behaviour of the material, probing the bulk/wall and global/local rheologies. We show that the roughness reduces the wall slip induced by wettability properties… |
