We introduce some numerical approximations to a quasilinear problem proposed by G. I. Barenblatt to describe non-equilibrium two-phase fluid flows in permeable porous media, which apply to secondary oil recovery from natural reservoirs. Taking into account the theoretical results of global… |

The integral representation of some biological phenomena consists in Volterra equations whose kernels involve a convolution term plus a non convolution one. Some significative applications arise in linearised models of cell migration and collective motion, as described in Di Costanzo et al. (… |

We introduce and investigate the grand Orlicz spaces and the grand Lorentz-Orlicz spaces. An application to the problem of global integrability of the Jacobian of orientation preserving mappings is given. |

The rheology of pressure-driven flows of two-dimensional dense monodisperse emulsions in neutral wetting microchannels is investigated by means of mesoscopic lattice Boltzmann simulations, capable of handling large collections of droplets, in the order of several hundreds. The simulations reveal… |

The study of a planing flat plate may be considered as a topic of wide interest for academic and industrial applications. From experimental and numerical studies, flow separation occurs near the stagnation point and a thin jet sprays forward along the plate, while a clear wave pattern develops… |

The Mixmaster dynamics is revisited in a new light as revealing a series of transitions in the
complex scale invariant scalar invariant of the Weyl curvature tensor best represented by the speciality
index S, which gives a 4-dimensional measure of the evolution of the spacetime independent
of all… |

A notion of "2D well-balanced" for drift-diffusion is proposed. Exactness at steady-state, typical in 1D, is weakened by aliasing errors when deriving "truly 2D" numerical fluxes from local Green's function. A main ingredient for proving that such a property holds is the optimality of the… |

We review the main factors driving the calculation of the tangent height of spaceborne limb measurements: the ray-tracing method, the refractive index model and the assumed atmosphere. We find that commonly used ray tracing and refraction models are very accurate, at least in the mid-infrared. The… |
