This paper is devoted to the mathematical modelling and numerical simulation of basic mechanisms that drive multicontinuum systems in two- and three-dimensional porous media. We state a general mathematical model within the framework of mixture theory, cap ...
A standard question arising in optimal transport theory is whether the Monge problem and the Kantorovich relaxation have the same infimum; the positive answer means that we can pass to the relaxed problem without loss of information. In the classical case ...
Femtosecond-laser hyperdoping of sulfur in silicon typically produces a concentration gradient that results in undesirable inhomogeneous material properties. Using a mathematical model of the doping process, we design a fabrication method consisting of a s ...
Continuous soft robots are becoming more and more widespread in applications, due to their increased safety and flexibility in critical applications. The possibility of having soft robots that are able to change their stiffness in selected parts can help i ...
Robust control is used for a system with uncertainties and disturbances. Above all, the H∞ loop shaping method is known as the method achieving good control performance. However, this method takes much time to build the mathematical model of an actual plan ...
This study focuses on the derivation of a semi-analytical approach for the evaluation of surface uplift and caprock deflection induced by underground injection of CO2. The adopted methodology includes the development of a mathematical model that incorporat ...
The paper presents the analysis of the effect of Fluid-Structure Interaction (FSI) occurring during hydraulic transients in pipe coils, in particular the main developments and findings. The research work comprises the development of mathematical models, th ...
Stochastic programming provides a versatile framework for decision-making under uncertainty, but the resulting optimization problems can be computationally demanding. It has recently been shown that, primal and dual linear decision rule approximations can ...
An open problem in polarization theory is to determine the binary operations that always lead to polarization when they are used in Arıkan style constructions. This paper solves this problem by providing a necessary and sufficient condition for a binary op ...
Hardware imperfections can significantly reduce the performance of full-duplex wireless systems by introducing non-idealities and random effects that make it challenging to fully suppress self-interference. Previous research has mostly focused on analysing ...
