We study the behavior of a fluid quenched from the disordered into the lamellar phase under the action of a
shear flow. The dynamics of the system is described by Navier-Stokes and convection-diffusion equations with
the pressure tensor and the chemical potential derived by the Brazovskii free… |

Particle laden turbulent flows occur in a variety of industrial applications. While the numerical simulation of such flows has seen significant advances in recent years, it still remains a challenging problem. Many studies investigated the rheology of dense suspensions in laminar flows as well as… |

SRv6 can provide hybrid cooperation between a centralized network controller and network nodes. IPv6 routers maintain
multi-hop ECMP-aware segments, whereas the controller establishes a source-routed path through the network. Since the
state of the flow is defined at the ingress to the network and… |

The pulsatile flow in a curved elastic pipe of circular cross section is
investigated. The unsteady flow of a viscous fluid and the wall motion equations are written in a toroidal coordinate system, superimposed and linearized over a steady state solution. Being the main application relative to the… |

In general relativity (GR), linearized gravitational waves propagating in empty Minkowski spacetime along a fixed spatial direction have the property that the wave front is the Euclidean plane. Beyond the linear regime, exact plane waves in GR have been studied theoretically for a long time and… |

The dynamics and rheology of suspensions of fluid vesicles or red blood cells is investigated by a combination of molecular dynamics and mesoscale hydrodynamics simulations in two dimensions. The vesicle suspension is confined between two no-slip walls, which are driven externally to generate a… |

Motivation: Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infects greater than 90% of
humans benignly for life but can be associated with tumors. It is a
uniquely human pathogen that is amenable to quantitative analysis;
however, there is no applicable animal model. Computer models
may provide a virtual environment to… |

We propose a new iterative procedure to find the
best time for re-initialization of meta-heuristic algorithms to
solve combinatorial optimization problems. The sequence of
algorithm executions with different random inizializations evolves
at each iteration by either adding new independent… |

Radiances observed by the Interferometric Monitor for Greenhouse gases sounder have been used to retrieve temperature, water vapor, and ozone profiles. It is shown that the sounder allows us to simultaneously retrieve stable solutions for temperature and water vapor. Once water vapor and… |
