Moire effects that occur in the superposition of aperiodic layers such as correlated random dot screens are known as Glass patterns. One of the most interesting properties of such moire effects, which clearly distinguish them from their periodic counterpar ...

In this paper, we introduce a framework that merges classical ideas borrowed from scale-space and multi-resolution segmentation with non-linear partial differential equations. A non-linear scale-space stack is constructed by means of an appropriate diffusi ...
The unstable nature of kinematic waves, resulting from outburst floods on steep inclines, is investigated theoretically using the shallow water equations. A numerical experiment is designed in order to efficiently perform a stability analysis. By analysing ...
We study a class of hyperbolic stochastic partial di®erential equations in Euclidean space, that includes the wave equation and the telegraph equation, driven by Gaussian noise concentrated on a hyperplane. The noise is assumed to be white in time but spat ...
Recovering the 3D deformations of a non-rigid surface from a single viewpoint has applications in many domains such as sports, entertainment, and medical imaging. Unfortunately, without any knowledge of the possible deformations that the object of interest ...
The two-way plot is a well-known tool to visualize the fit of a two-way table. An additive fit can be represented by two sets of parallel traces, whose intersection ordinates equal the fitted values. Based on linear traces, a variety of other two-way plots ...
This paper discusses the results of numerical analysis of dispersion of passive solutes in two-dimensional heterogeneous porous formations. Statistics of flow and transport variables, the accuracy and the role of approximations implicit in existing first-o ...
This textbook is an introduction to Scientific Computing, in which several numerical methods for the computer solution of certain classes of mathematical problems are illustrated. The authors show how to compute the zeros or the integrals of continuous fun ...
Reasons for the continuing difficulty in making definitive measurements of pulse wave attenuation in elastic tubes and arteries in the presence of reflections are sought. The measurement techniques available were re-examined in elastic tubes mimicking the ...
