We study the statistics of curvature and torsion of Lagrangian trajectories from direct numerical simulations of homogeneous and isotropic turbulence (at Re-lambda approximate to 280) in order to extract informations on the geometry of small-scale coherent structures in turbulent flows. We find… |

An original well-balanced (WB) Godunov scheme relying on an exact Riemann solver involving a non-conservative (NC) product is developed. It is meant to solve accurately the time-dependent one-dimensional radiative transfer equation in the discrete ordinates approximation with an arbitrary even… |

The literature on k-splittable flows, see Baier et al. (2002) Baier et al. (2005), provides evidence on how controlling the number of used paths enables practical applications of flows optimization in many real-world contexts. Such a modeling feature has never been integrated so far in Quickest… |

Network firewalls filter traffic by comparing all arriving packets to a set of rules, typically in a sequential manner. This activity requires a high amount of processing time and introduces a significantly delay to the traffic. As a result, a packet filter can become a bottleneck for the… |

We present computer simulations of the HIV infection based on a
sophisticated cellular automata model of the immune response. The
infection progresses following the well known three-phases dynamics
observed in patients, that is, acute, silent and acquired
immunodeficiency. Antigenic shift and… |

The morphology of a mixture made of a polar active gel immersed in an isotropic passive fluid is studied numerically. Lattice Boltzmann method is adopted to solve the Navier-Stokes equation and coupled to a finite-difference scheme used to integrate the dynamic equations of the concentration and of… |

Mass transport and diffusion phenomena in the arterial lumen are studied through a mathematical
model. Blood flow is described by the unsteady Navier -Stokes equation and solute dynamics by an
advection-diffusion equation, the convective field being provided by the fluid velocity. A linearization… |

We explore the impact of geometrical corrugations on the near-wall flow properties of a soft material driven in a confined rough microchannel. By means of numerical simulations, we perform a quantitative analysis of the relation between the flow rate ? and the wall stress ?w for a number of setups… |
