Mudflows are catastrophic events that cause immense damage to infrastructure and life every year. Local authorities have been trying to mitigate the risk by zoning regulations as well as by building protection structures for many years. These measures have ...
We present a method that is able to track several 3D objects si- multaneously, robustly, and accurately in real-time. While many applications need to consider more than one object in practice, the existing methods for single object tracking do not scale we ...
Practical large-scale nonlinear control systems (PLSNCS) require an intensive and time-consuming fine-tuning process in order to achieve a satisfactory - or, even, acceptable - performance. In the majority of PLSNCS the fine-tuning process is performed by ...
In the process of turbine modernizations, the investigation of the influences of water passage roughness on radial flow machine performance is crucial and validates the efficiency step up between reduced scale model and prototype. This study presents the s ...

A fundamental understanding of the quench phenomenon is crucial in the future design and operation of HTS based Fault Current Limiters (FCLs). The key parameter that quantifies the quenching process in superconductors is the normal zone propagation (NZP) v ...
Reconstruction algorithms for Optical Diffuse Tomography (ODT) rely heavily on fast and accurate forward models. Arbitrary geometries and boundary conditions need to be handled rigorously since they are the only input to the inverse problem. From this pers ...

In this study, we consider some recent stabilization techniques for the Stokes' problem and show that they are instances of the framework proposed by Brezzi and Fortin in "A minimal stabilisation procedure for mixed finite element methods" (Numer Math 89, ...
In this work we provide efficient numerical methods for the numerical solution of Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) and the computation of the associated outputs of interest, also in the frame of optimal control problems. With this aim, a goal-oriented ...

We consider DG-methods for 2nd order scalar elliptic problems using piecewise affine approximation in two or three space dimensions. We prove that both the symmetric and the non-symmetric version of the DG-method have regular system matrices also without pen ...
