The stability and the convergence of a collocation method for a class of Cauchy singular integral equations

The author proves the stability and the uniform convergence of a collocation method for solving Cauchy singular integral equations with regular pertubation kernel. Error estimates in the uniform norm are also given.

A generalized mean-field game model for the dynamics of pedestrians with limited predictive abilities

This paper investigates the model for pedestrian flow firstly proposed in [Cristiani, Priuli, and Tosin, SIAM J. Appl. Math., 75:605-629, 2015]. The model assumes that each individual in the crowd moves in a known domain, aiming at minimizing a given cost functional. Both the pedestrian dynamics…

Application of the HLSVD Technique to the Filtering of X-Ray Diffraction Data

A filter based on the Hankel-Lanczos singular value decomposition (HLSVD) technique is presented and applied for the first time to X-ray diffraction (XRD) data. Synthetic and real powder XRD intensity profiles of nanocrystals are used to study the filter performances with different noise levels.…

Monitoring Strategies of Earth Dams by Ground-Based Radar Interferometry: How to Extract Useful Information for Seismic Risk Assessment

The aim of this paper is to describe how ground-based radar interferometry can provide displacement measurements of earth dam surfaces and of vibration frequencies of its main concrete infrastructures. In many cases, dams were built many decades ago and, at that time, were not equipped with in situ…

Wavelet density estimation for weighted data

We consider the estimation of a density function on the basis of a random sample from a weighted distribution. We propose linear and nonlinear wavelet density estimators, and provide their asymptotic formulae for mean integrated squared error. In particular, we derive an analogue of the asymptotic…

Mesoscopic model for soft flowing systems with tunable viscosity ratio

We propose a mesoscopic model of binary fluid mixtures with tunable viscosity ratio based on a two-range pseudopotential lattice Boltzmann method, for the simulation of soft flowing systems. In addition to the short-range repulsive interaction between species in the classical single-range model, a…

Modeling of vortex dynamics in the wake of a marine propeller

The flow past a rotating marine propeller is analyzed with the aim of establishing limits and capabilities and, hence, the field of applicability of different turbulence modeling approaches for this class of prob- lems. To this purpose the eddy viscosity model of Spalart and Allmaras (1994) [1] and…

Lattice propagators and Haldane-Wu fractional statistics

We point out a formal analogy between lattice kinetic propagators and Haldane-Wu fractional statistics. The analogy could be used to compute the partition function of fractional quantum systems by solving a corresponding lattice kinetic equation for classical dissipative flowing syst erns.…
