Local modifications of a computational domain are often performed in order to simplify the meshing process and to reduce computational costs and memory requirements. However, removing geometrical features of a domain often introduces a non-negligible error ...
Global spectral methods offer the potential to compute solutions of partial differential equations numerically to very high accuracy. In this work, we develop a novel global spectral method for linear partial differential equations on cubes by extending th ...
The Internodes method is a general purpose method to deal with non-conforming discretizations of partial differential equations on 2D and 3D regions partitioned into disjoint subdomains. In this paper we are interested in measuring how much the Internodes ...
Removing geometrical details from a complex domain is a classical operation in computer aided design for simulation and manufacturing. This procedure simplifies the meshing process, and it enables faster simulations with less memory requirements. However, ...
Modern manufacturing engineering is based on a ``design-through-analysis'' workflow. According to this paradigm, a prototype is first designed with Computer-aided-design (CAD) software and then finalized by simulating its physical behavior, which usually i ...
Gossip algorithms and their accelerated versions have been studied exclusively in discrete time on graphs. In this work, we take a different approach and consider the scaling limit of gossip algorithms in both large graphs and large number of iterations. T ...
In this Master thesis we explore the convex integration method by S. Müller and V. Šverák and its applications to partial differential equations. In particular, we use it to build very irregular solutions to elliptic systems. We also apply this method to b ...
We investigate the fluid-driven growth of a shear crack along a frictional discontinuity and its transition to hydraulic fracturing (sometimes referred to as hydraulic jacking) under plane-strain conditions. We focus on the case of a constant friction coef ...
The work is about the study of group representations in the group of isometries of a separable complex hyperbolic space. The main part is the classification of the representations of the group of isometries of a finite dimensional complex hyperbolic spa ...
The evaluation and consideration of the mean flow in wave evolution equations are necessary for the accurate prediction of fluid particle trajectories under wave groups, with relevant implications in several domains, from the transport of pollutants in the ...
