- Description:
- In this talk, I will present an overview of the numerical models that have been developed during the last few years for the performance prediction of America's Cup yachts. Different aspects which characterize the behaviour of racing boats will be discussed, such as the role of the yacht appendages, the dynamical response of the yacht in calm and...

- Description:
- In this talk we will describe the derivation of mathematical and numerical models for the simulation of high performance rowing boats. Rowing boats are a complex dynamical system strongly affected by the rowers action and movements. Indeed a rowing boat hardly moves with constant speed, but it is instead subject to a complex system of secondary ...

- Description:
- Weak van der Waals interactions between 2D materials layers do not impose limitations on integrating highly disparate materials such as graphene, hexagonal boron nitride and many others. This is both a blessing, allowing the realization of many more configurations, and a curse from a modeling perspective due to the loss of periodicity. Unusual g...

The interaction of such flows with membrane and flow mechanics is an important area in many biological applications. Particularly, in recent studies, experimental evidence suggests that membrane ion channels and aquaporins (wa...

We are interested in approximating numerically the value function and an optimal strategy of this general discounted minimax control problem. To do so, we provide an approximating minimax control model with finite state and act...

- This talk focuses on the issues that arise when modeling andsimulating fluids containing rod--like molecules (nematics). The(average) orientation of these fluids is typically modeled by a unitvector field which complicates both the analysis and numericalsolution of these equations. In particular,i) The unit length constraint gives rise to topolo...
