We propose a diffusion strategy to enable social learning over networks. Individual agents observe signals influenced by the state of the environment. The individual measurements are not sufficient to enable the agents to detect the true state of the envir ...
The aim of this master thesis is to study and develop a stabilized reduced basis method suitable for the approximation of the solution of parametrized advection-diffusion PDEs with high Péclet number, that is, roughly, the ratio between the advection coeff ...
In this work, various aspects concerning the numerical simulation of a sailing boat are investigated. The attention is focused on simulation of the free-surface, the fluid-structure interaction (FSI) between wind and sails, and the dynamics of the whole bo ...
Achieving control of the nanoscale structure of binary alloys is of paramount importance for the design of novel materials with specific properties, leading to, for example, improved reaction rates and selectivity in catalysis, tailored magnetic behavior i ...
The effect of low-temperature curing on the physical characteristics of a commercial cold-curing epoxy adhesive was experimentally and analytically investigated with a view to a potential application in bridge construction in winter. Curing at low temperat ...
Many modern block ciphers use maximum distance separable (MDS) matrices as the main part of their diffusion layers. In this paper, we propose a new class of diffusion layers constructed from several rounds of Feistel-like structures whose round functions a ...
A novel NMR approach allows one to efficiently determine translational diffusion coefficients of macromolecules in solution. This method for Signal Optimization with Recovery in Diffusion Delays (SORDID) monitors transport occurring during the recovery tim ...
We investigated the dam-break problem for Herschel-Bulkley fluids: a fixed volume of a viscoplastic material (a polymeric gel called Carbopol ultrez 10) was released and flowed down an inclined flume. Using Particle Image Velocimetry techniques, we measure ...
We consider the hydrodynamics of supersymmetric fluids. Supersymmetry is broken spontaneously and the low energy spectrum includes a fermionic massless mode, the phonino. We use two complementary approaches to describe the system: First, we construct a gen ...
Hermiticity is an essential requirement of a MEMS package for a device to work properly. Hermeticity also must be preserved during the operations following packaging, during which the package bond should not remelt. Bonding temperature is limited however t ...
