We present a simple model describing the chemical aggression undergone by calcium carbonate rocks in presence of acid atmosphere. A large literature is available on the deterioration processes of building stones, in particular in connection with problems concerning historical buildings in the field… |

The turning circle manoeuvre of a naval supply vessel (characterized by a block coefficient <sup>CB</sup>~0.60) is simulated by the integration of the unsteady Reynolds-Averaged Navier Stokes equations coupled with the equations of rigid body motion with six degrees of freedom. The… |

A method is proposed to identify solutions of the thin-film equations with non-zero contact angle |

Motivated by the recent outbreak of coronavirus (COVID-19), we propose a stochastic model of epidemic temporal growth and mitigation based on a time-modulated Hawkes process. The model is sufficiently rich to incorporate specific characteristics of the novel coronavirus, to capture the impact of… |

The formation of methane-hydrate precursors at large planar water-methane interfaces has been studied using massively parallel molecular dynamics in systems of varying size from around 10 000 to almost 7 x 10(6) molecules. This process took two distinct steps. First, the concentration of solvated… |

An integro-differential equation of Prandtl's type and a collocation method as well as a collocationquadrature
method for its approximate solution is studied in weighted spaces of continuous functions. |

This paper deals with the elastic energy induced by systems of straight edge dislocations in the framework of linearized plane elasticity. The dislocations are introduced as point topological defects of the displacement-gradient fields. Following the core radius approach, we introduce a parameter… |

We provide numerical evidence that electronic preturbulent phenomena in graphene could be observed, under current experimental conditions, through current fluctuations, echoing the detachment of vortices past localized micron-sized impurities. Vortex generation, due to micron-sized constriction, is… |
