The surface of aqueous solutions of simple salts was not the main focus of scientific attention for a long while. Considerable interest in studying such systems has only emerged in the past two decades, following the pioneering finding that large halide io ...
Solidification is a phase transformation of utmost importance in material science, for it largely controls materials' microstructure on which a wide range of mechanical properties depends. Almost every human artifact undergoes a transformation that leads t ...
The climate and weather are modeled by running computer simulations. In a data-driven approach, scientists tailor the simulation to resemble reality (partly through an understanding of the physical processes, partly through their parameterization). With th ...
Relaxational processes in many complex systems often occur in the form of avalanches resulting from internal cascades from across the system scale. Here, we probe the space, time, and magnitude signatures of avalanching behavior using a network of temporal ...
Understanding the link between the brain's anatomy and its function through computer
simulations of neural tissue models is a widely used approach in computational neuroscience.
This technique enables rapid prototyping and testing of hypotheses, allowing r ...
We present a weak form implementation of the nonlinear axisymmetric shell equations. This implementation is suitable to study the nonlinear deformations of axisymmetric shells, with the capability of considering a general mid-surface shape, non-homogeneous ...
In the last years, the correlation between air pollution and health issues related to respiratory, cardiovascular and digestive systems has become evident. Today, urban aerosols raise the interest of both scientific community and public opinion. METAS, the ...
Reservoir sedimentation and consequently lack of storage volume and perturbation of the operation of intakes and bottom outlet is a key challenge affecting both hydropower production as well as dam safety and flood management. In the framework of a peer-re ...
This article introduces a new class of models for multiple networks. The core idea is to parameterize a distribution on labeled graphs in terms of a Frechet mean graph (which depends on a user-specified choice of metric or graph distance) and a parameter t ...
Given a source of iid samples of edges of an input graph G with n vertices and m edges, how many samples does one need to compute a constant factor approximation to the maximum matching size in G? Moreover, is it possible to obtain such an estimate in a sm ...
