Differentiability properties of Orlicz-Sobolev functions

Computational biology modeling across different scales

One of the most formidable challenges in modern biology is to get a unified view of the various mechanisms governing the behavior and of the causal relationships among different parts of a living system. It is coming clearer nowadays that to get such comprehensive picture computational models…

Optimal spatiotemporal control of Ailanthus altissima (Mill.) Swingle in the Alta Murgia National Park

The threat, impact and management problems associated with alien plant invasions are increasingly becoming a major issue in environmental conservation. Invasive species cause significant damages, and high associated costs. Controlling them cost-effectively is an ongoing challenge, and mathematical…

Airflow numerical optimization in subsoil decontamination problems

Stent-based drug delivery in multi-layered arterial wall

Combining pathway identification and survival prediction via screening-network analysis

Motivation Gene expression data from high-throughput assays, such as microarray, are often used to predict cancer survival. However, available datasets consist of a small number of samples (n patients) and a large number of gene expression data (p predictors). Therefore, the main challenge is to…

Optimal spatio-temporal control of invasive plant in protected areas

We develop a modelling approach for the optimal spatiotemporal control of invasive species in natural protected areas of high conservation value. The proposed approach, based on diusion equations, is spatially explicit, and includes a functional response (Holling type II) which models the control…

Airflow optimization for the decontamination of subsoil by bioventing techniques: the role of the Radius of Bioremediation

Profit participation annuities: a business profitability analysis within a demographic risk sensitive approach

Mathematical formulation of Bioventing Optimal Design Strategies

Bioventing is a technology used to abate the presence of pollutants in the subsoil. Microorganisms biodegrade the pollutant but the biochemical reaction requires oxygen and so an air ow is induced in the subsoil by means of injection and/or extraction wells. Costs, final result and decontamination…
