In this paper we present a new approach in the study of aorto-coronaric bypass anastomoses configurations. The theory of optimal control based on adjoint formulation is applied in order to optimize the shape of the zone of the incoming branch of the bypass ...
In this PhD thesis we deal with two mathematical problems arising from quantum mechanics. We consider a spinless non relativistic quantum particle whose configuration space is a two dimensional surface S. We also suppose that the particle feels the effect ...
As sampling is taking place, the most active regions of the spectrum can be identified (i.e. the vicinity of spectral peaks). By selectively increasing the spectral density within those regions improves the quality of the total spectral representation redu ...
The aim of this Note is to provide a rigorous mathematical treatment of a new spectral problem, coming from a linear stability analysis in fluid-structure interaction. This eigenproblem involves the linearized incompressible Navier-Stokes equations coupled ...
A methodology has been developed for the accurate assessment of localised reactivity perturbations in a BWR lattice embedded in a larger multiplying system, based on a full-system, unperturbed calculation, and on perturbed calculations on reduced-geometry ...
Scaling down robots to miniature size introduces many new challenges including memory and program size limitations, low processor performance and low power autonomy. In this paper we describe the concept and implementation of learning of a safewandering ta ...

Summary: We present a method based on an optimal control technique for numerical computations of geodesic paths between two fixed points of a Riemannian manifold under the assumption of existence. In this method, the control variable is the tangent vector ...
We propose to design the reduction operator of an image pyramid so as to minimize the approximation error in the lp-sense (not restricted to the usual p=2), where p can take non-integer values. The underlying image model is specified using shift- ...
The aim of this work is to provide a new Linearization Principle approach particularly suited for problems in fluid–structure stability. The complexity here, and the main difference with respect to the classical approach, comes from the fact that the full ...
