Wireless sensor networks involve many different real-world contexts, such as monitoring and control tasks for traffic, surveillance, military and environmental applications, among others. Usually, these applications consider the use of a large number of low-cost sensing devices to monitor the… |

We present a solution based on a suitable combination of heuristics and parallel processing techniques for finding the best allocation of the financial assets of a pension fund, taking into account all the specific rules of the fund. We compare the values of an objective function computed with… |

For G open bounded subset of R^2 with C^1 boundary, we study the regularity of the variational solution u in H^1_0(G) to the quasilinear elliptic equation of Leray-Lions type: -div A(x,Du)=f , when f belongs to the Zygmund space L(log L)^{\delta}, \delta>0. As an interpolation between known… |

Drug-coated balloons (DCBs) are used commonly for delivering drug into diseased arteries. When applied on the inner surface of an artery, drug is transported from the balloon into the multilayer arterial wall through diffusion and advection, where it is ultimately absorbed through binding reactions… |

We present an axisymmetric lattice Boltzmann model based on the Kupershtokh et al. multiphase model that is capable of solving liquid-gas density ratios up to 10(3). Appropriate source terms are added to the lattice Boltzmann evolution equation to fully recover the axisymrnetric multiphase… |

We present state-of-the-art numerical simulations of a two-dimensional Rayleigh-Taylor instability for a compressible stratified fluid. We describe the computational algorithm and its implementation on the QPACE supercomputer. High resolution enables the statistical properties of the evolving… |

In this article we summarise present knowledge on the role of pro-inflammatory cytokines on chronic inflammation leading to organismal aging, a phenomenon we proposed to call "inflamm-aging". In particular, we review genetic data regarding polymorphisms of genes encoding for cytokines and proteins… |

Volterra Integral Equations (VIEs) arise in many problems of real life, as, for example, feedback control theory, population dynamics and fluid dynamics. A reliable numerical simulation of these phenomena requires a careful analysis of the long time behavior of the numerical solution. Here we… |
