On the numerical inversion of the Laplace transform for Nuclear Magnetic Resonance relaxometry

In this paper we study several different methods both deterministic and stochastic to solve the Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) relaxometry problem. This problem is strongly related to finding a non-negative function given a finite number of values of its Laplace transform embedded in noise. Some…

Gamma-Convergence Analysis of Systems of Edge Dislocations: The Self Energy Regime

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…

Preturbulent Regimes in Graphene Flow

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…

Optimal bounds for solutions to Neumann problems in limiting cases

A priori estimates for solutions to homogeneous Neumann problems for uniformly elliptic equa- tions in open subsets \Omega­ of IR^n are established when the datum on right-hand side is in the limiting space L^{n/2}(\Omega), or, more generally, in the Lorentz spaces L^{n/2, q}(\Omega). These…

Accelerated lattice Boltzmann scheme for steady-state flows

The FORUM End-to-End Simulator project: architecture and results

FORUM (Far-infrared Outgoing Radiation Understanding and Monitoring) will flight as the 9th ESA's Earth Explorer mission, and an End-to-End Simulator (E2ES) has been developed as a support tool for the mission selection process and the subsequent development phases. The current status of the FORUM…

Long-range hydrodynamic effect due to a single vesicle in linear flow

Vesicles are involved in a vast variety of transport processes in living organisms. Additionally, they serve as a model for the dynamics of cell suspensions. Predicting the rheological properties of their suspensions is still an open question, as even the interaction of pairs is yet to be fully…

Keratoconus Staging: A Computer-Assisted Ultrabiomicroscopic Method Compared With Videokeratographic Analysis

A hybrid metaheuristic for the Knapsack Problem with Forfeits

In this paper, we present a novel hybrid metaheuristic for the Knapsack Problem with Forfeits (KPF). KPF is a recently introduced generalization of the Knapsack Problem. In this variant, a penalty cost incurs whenever both items composing a so-called forfeit pair belong to the solution. Our…
