Accelerated lattice Boltzmann scheme for steady-state flows

Two-dimensional performance of MIPAS observation modes in the upper-troposphere/lower-stratosphere

An interface-free multi-scale multi-order model for traffic flow

In this paper we present a new multi-scale method for reproducing traffic flow which couples a first-order macroscopic model with a second-order microscopic model, avoiding any interface or boundary conditions between them. The multi-scale model is characterized by the fact that microscopic and…

Keratoconus Staging: A Computer-Assisted Ultrabiomicroscopic Method Compared With Videokeratographic Analysis

Impairment of circulating endothelial progenitors in Down syndrome

Background: Pathological angiogenesis represents a critical issue in the progression of many diseases. Down syndrome is postulated to be a systemic anti-angiogenesis disease model, possibly due to increased expression of anti-angiogenic regulators on chromosome 21. The aim of our study was to…

Analytical determination of the periastron advance in spinning binaries from self-force computations

We present the first analytical computation of the (conservative) gravitational self-force correction to the periastron advance around a spinning black hole. Our result is accurate to the second order in the rotational parameter and through the 9.5 post-Newtonian level. It has been obtained as the…

Spin, acceleration and Gravity

The massless field perturbations of the accelerating Minkowski and Schwarzschild spacetimes are studied. The results are extended to the propagation of the Proca field in Rindler spacetime. We examine critically the possibility of existence of a general spin–acceleration coupling in complete…

Moser type inequalities for higher-order derivatives in Lorentz spaces

Sharp constants are exhibited in exponential inequalities corresponding to the limiting case of the Sobolev inequalities in Lorentz-Sobolev spaces of arbitrary order.

Noise Removal from Remote Sensed Images by NonLocal Means with OpenCL Algorithm

We introduce a multi-platform portable implementation of the NonLocal Means methodology aimed at noise removal from remotely sensed images. It is particularly suited for hyperspectral sensors for which real-time applications are not possible with only CPU based algorithms. In the last decades…
