Automated restoration of semi-transparent degradation via Lie groups and visibility laws

This paper presents a novel approach for the removal of semi-transparent defects from images of historical or artistic importance. It combines Lie group transformations with human perception rules in order to make restoration more flexible and adaptable to defects having different physical or…

APPLICATIONS OF FINITE-DIFFERENCE LATTICE BOLTZMANN METHOD TO BREAKUP AND COALESCENCE IN MULTIPHASE FLOWS

Simulating blood rheology across scales: A hybrid LB-particle approach

In this paper, we deploy the hybrid Lattice Boltzmann - Particle Dynamics (LBPD) method to investigate the transport properties of blood flow within arterioles and venules. The numerical approach is applied to study the transport of Red Blood Cells (RBC) through plasma, highlighting significant…

Solutions to the st-connectivity problem using a GPU-based distributed BFS

Regularity results for planar quasilinear equations with right-hand side in L(log L)^{\delta}

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…

Kite attack: reshaping the cube attack for a flexible GPU-based maxterm search

Dinur and Shamir's cube attack has attracted significant attention in the literature. Nevertheless, the lack of implementations achieving effective results casts doubts on its practical relevance. On the theoretical side, promising results have been recently achieved leveraging on division trails.…

Numerical simulations of Rayleigh-Taylor front evolution in turbulent stratified fluids

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…

Modeling realistic multiphase flows using a non-orthogonal multiple-relaxation-time lattice Boltzmann method

In this paper, we develop a three-dimensional multiple-relaxation-time lattice Boltzmann method (MRT-LBM) based on a set of non-orthogonal basis vectors. Compared with the classical MRT-LBM based on a set of orthogonal basis vectors, the present non-orthogonal MRT-LBM simplifies the transformation…

Modeling of bifurcation phenomena in suddenly expanded flows with a new finite volume lattice Boltzmann method

Exit-times and epsilon-entropy for dynamical systems, stochastic processes, and turbulence

We present an investigation of epsilon -entropy, h(epsilon), in dynamical systems, stochastic processes and turbulence, This tool allows for a suitable characterization of dynamical behaviours arising in systems with many different scales of motion. Particular emphasis is put on a recently proposed…
