The existence of global smooth solutions to the multi-dimensional
hydrodynamic model for plasmas of electrons and positively charged ions
is shown under the assumption that the initial densities are close to
a constant. The model consists of the conservation laws for the particle densities and the… |

Clostridium difficile is a spore-forming gram-positive bacterium, recognized as the primary cause of antibiotic-associated nosocomial diarrhoea. Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) has emerged as a major health-associated infection with increased incidence and hospitalization over the years with… |

We perform direct numerical simulations of an unstably stratified turbulent channel flow to address the effects of buoyancy on the boundary layer dynamics and mean field quantities. We systematically span a range of parameters in the space of friction Reynolds number (Re<inf>?</inf>)and… |

By improving a one-dimensional model proposed by De Fabritiis, Mancini, Mansutti and Succi in 1998, we develop a simple reaction model for liquid-solid phase transitions in the context of the lattice Boltzmann method with enhanced collisions.Calculations for a two-dimensional test problem of… |

We consider 2D discrete systems, described by scalar functions and governed by periodic interaction potentials. We focus on anisotropic nearest neighbors interactions in the hexagonal lattice and on isotropic long range interactions in the square lattice. In both these cases, we perform a complete… |

Direct numerical approximation of a continuous-time infinite horizon control problem, requires to recast the model as a discrete-time, finite-horizon control model. The quality of the optimization results can be heavily degraded if the discretization process does not take into account features of… |

We discuss a stochastic closure for the equation of motion satisfied by multiscale correlation functions in the framework of shell models of turbulence. We present a plausible closure scheme to calculate the anomalous scaling exponents of structure functions by using the exact constraints imposed… |
