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… |

The rheological behaviour of an emulsion made of an active polar component and an isotropic passive fluid is studied by lattice Boltzmann methods. Different flow regimes are found by varying the values of the shear rate and extensile activity (occurring, e.g., in microtubule-motor suspensions). By… |

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… |

Molecular dynamics (MD) has become one of the most powerful tools of investigation in soft matter. Despite such success, simulations of large molecular environments are mostly run using the approximation of closed systems without the possibility of exchange of matter. Due to the molecular… |

Marine species reproduce and compete while being advected by turbulent flows. It is largely unknown, both theoretically and experimentally, how population dynamics and genetics are changed by the presence of fluid flows. Discrete agent-based simulations in continuous space allow for accurate… |

In this paper we consider first order differential models of collective behaviors of groups of agents, based on the mass conservation equation. Models are formulated taking the spatial distribution of the agents as the main unknown, expressed in terms of a probability measure evolving in time. We… |

In this paper we revisit the problem of performing a QZ step with a so-called "perfect shift", which is an
"exact" eigenvalue of a given regular pencil lambda B-A in unreduced Hessenberg-Triangular form. In exact
arithmetic, the QZ step moves that eigenvalue to the bottom of the pencil, while the… |

Accelerated circular orbits in the equatorial plane of the Taub-NUT spacetime are analyzed to investigate the effects of its gravitomagnetic monopole source. The effect of a small gravitomagnetic monopole on these orbits is compared to the corresponding orbits pushed slightly off the equatorial… |
