Lattice Boltzmann schemes for quantum applications

A fractional step, explicit/semi-implicit method for solving air flow equations inside internal combustion engines

Spectral Analysis of Saddle-point Matrices from Optimization problems with Elliptic PDE Constraints

The main focus of this paper is the characterization and exploitation of the asymptotic spectrum of the saddle--point matrix sequences arising from the discretization of optimization problems constrained by elliptic partial differential equations. They uncover the existence of an hidden structure…

Global smooth solutions to the multi-dimensional hydrodynamic model for two-carrier plasmas

The existence of global smooth solutions to the multi-dimensional hydrodynamic model for plasmas of electrons and positively charged ions is shown under the assumption that the initial densities are close to a constant. The model consists of the conservation laws for the particle densities and the…

Mathematical model of tumour cord growth along the source of nutrient

A mathematical model of the tumour growth along a blood vessel is proposed. The model employs the mixture theory approach to describe a tissue which consists of cells, extracellular matrix and liquid. The growing tumour tissue is supposed to be surrounded by the host tissue. Tumours where complete…

3-D Ground-Based Imaging Radar Based on C-Band Cross-MIMO Array and Tensor Compressive Sensing

We designed a ground-based radar system with a C-band 2-D cross multiple input multiple output (MIMO) array for 3-D imaging and displacement estimation purposes. For this system, we developed a far-field pseudo-polar image format algorithm using pseudo-polar spherical coordinate. The use of a…

Lattice Boltzmann model for anisotropic liquid-solid phase transition

By improving a one-dimensional model proposed by De Fabritiis, Mancini, Mansutti and Succi in 1998, we develop a simple reaction model for liquid-solid phase transitions in the context of the lattice Boltzmann method with enhanced collisions.Calculations for a two-dimensional test problem of…

Short interspersed DNA elements and miRNAs: a novel hidden gene regulation layer in zebrafish?

In this study, we investigated by in silico analysis the possible correlation between microRNAs (miRNAs) and Anamnia V-SINEs (a superfamily of short interspersed nuclear elements), which belong to those retroposon families that have been preserved in vertebrate genomes for millions of years and are…
