We consider a discrete model of planar elasticity where the particles, in the reference configuration, sit on a regular triangular lattice and interact through nearest-neighbor pairwise potentials, with bonds modeled as linearized elastic springs. Within this framework, we introduce plastic slip… |

We study the initial-boundary value problem [Formula presented]where [Formula presented] is an interval and [Formula presented] is a nonnegative Radon measure on [Formula presented]. The map [Formula presented] is increasing in [Formula presented] and decreasing in [Formula presented] for some [… |

This paper investigates a simple one-dimensional model of incommensurate harmonic crystal in terms of the spectrum of the corresponding Schrödinger equation. Two angles of attack are studied: the first exploits techniques borrowed from the theory of quasi-periodic functions while the second… |

Electrophysiological source imaging (ESI) aims at reconstructing the precise origin of brain activity from measurements of the electric field on the scalp. Across laboratories/research centers/hospitals, ESI is performed with different methods, partly due to the ill-posedness of the underlying… |

We present a general mechanistic model of mass diffusion for a composite sphere placed in a large ambient medium. The multi-layer problem is described by a system of diffusion equations coupled via interlayer boundary conditions such as those imposing a finite mass resistance at the extemal surface… |

A Boundary Element Method (BEM) hydrodynamics combined with a flow-alignment technique to evaluate blades shed
vorticity is presented and applied to a marine propeller in open water. Potentialities and drawbacks of this approach in capturing
propeller performance, slipstream velocities, blade… |

Implantation of drug eluting stents following percutaneous trans-
luminal angioplasty has revealed a well established technique for treating occlusions caused by the atherosclerotic plaque. However, due to the risk of vascular
re-occlusion, other alternative therapeutic strategies of drug delivery… |
