This paper establishes a mean-field equation set and an energy theorem to provide a theoretical basis in view of the development of self-consistent, physics-based turbulent transport models for mean-field transport codes. A rigorous averaging procedure ide ...
Dielectrophoresis (DEP) is a versatile tool for the precise microscale manipulation of a broad range of substances. To unleash the full potential of DEP for the manipulation of complex molecular-sized particulates such as proteins requires the development ...
Driven by the need to solve increasingly complex optimization problems in signal processing and machine learning, recent years have seen rising interest in the behavior of gradient-descent based algorithms in non-convex environments. Most of the works on d ...
We study a classical K-type three-level system based on three high-Q micromechanical beam resonators embedded in a gradient electric field. By modulating the strength of the field at the difference frequency between adjacent beam modes, we realize strong d ...
In this work we extend to the Stokes problem the Discontinuous Galerkin Reduced Basis Element (DGRBE) method introduced in [1]. By this method we aim at reducing the computational cost for the approximation of a parametrized Stokes problem on a domain part ...
In this work we extend to the Stokes problem the Discontinuous Galerkin Reduced Basis Element (DGRBE) method introduced in Antonietti et al. (2015). By this method we aim at reducing the computational cost for the approximation of a parametrized Stokes pro ...
We study a model of crowd motion following a gradient vector field, with possibly additional interaction terms such as attraction/repulsion, and we present a numerical scheme for its solution through a Lagrangian discretization. The density constraint of t ...
Using electrically connected metal-coated posts in a deterministic lateral displacement (DLD) device and applying electric fields, electrokinetics is used to tune separations, significantly decrease the critical size for separation, and increase the dynami ...
Driven by the need to solve increasingly complex optimization problems in signal processing and machine learning, there has been increasing interest in understanding the behavior of gradient-descent algorithms in non-convex environments. Most available wor ...
In this paper the loaded polymer transport and its escape via a nanometer size aperture, virtually by nanomembrane, the polymer being moved by an exterior electrostatic field, has been studied. Assuming a linear dependency of the friction coefficient on th ...
