This paper addresses the complexity reduction of stochastic homogenization of a class of random materials for a stationary diffusion equation. A cost-efficient approximation of the correctors is obtained using a method designed to exploit quasi-periodicity ...
A combination of multiple nondestructive testing (NDT) methods speeds up the assessmentof concrete and increases the precision. This is why the UIR-Scanner was developed at WarsawUniversity of Technology. The scanner uses an Impact-Echo (IE) method with a ...
This paper deals with the mathematical model that describes the function of the human heart. More specifically, it addresses the equations that express the electromechanical process, that is the mechanical deformation (contraction and relaxation) of the he ...
This article provides the implementation procedure, the validation, and some considerations on the computational efforts of the analytical expressions developed for the lightning electromagnetic fields presented in the companion paper. The validation is pr ...
We propose a simple model to study the tradeoff between timeliness and distortion, where different pieces of data have a different cost of not being sent. We pose the question of finding the optimal tradeoff as a policy design problem amenable to dynamic p ...
Optimized Schwarz Methods (OSMs) are based on optimized transmission conditions along the interfaces between the subdomains. Optimized transmission conditions are derived at the theoretical level, using techniques developed in the last decades. The hypothe ...
Ehrenfest dynamics is a useful approximation for ab initio mixed quantum-classical molecular dynamics that can treat electronically nonadiabatic effects. Although a severe approximation to the exact solution of the molecular time-dependent Schrödinger equa ...
In this thesis we explore uncertainty quantification of forward and inverse problems involving differential equations. Differential equations are widely employed for modeling natural and social phenomena, with applications in engineering, chemistry, meteor ...
We propose Kernel Predictive Control (KPC), a learning-based predictive control strategy that enjoys deterministic guarantees of safety. Noise-corrupted samples of the unknown system dynamics are used to learn several models through the formalism of non-pa ...
