The growth kinetics advantage of twinned aluminum dendrites over regular ones is still an unsolved problem of solidification. Although it is linked to the tip geometry, the influence of a coherent (1 1 1) twin plane on a < 1 1 0 > twinned dendrite tip is u ...
Optimization problems with noisy data solved using stochastic programming or robust optimization approaches require the explicit characterization of an uncertainty set U that models the nature of the noise. Such approaches depend on the modeling of the unc ...
Reduced Basis (RB) method has successfully been used in 2D to solve heat transfer parametrized problems. In this work, we present some 3D applications in the same field. We consider two problems, the steady Thermal Fin and the time dependent Graetz Flow, w ...
The main goal in network information theory is to identify fundamental limits of communication over networks, and design solutions which perform close to such limits. After several decades of effort, many important problems still do not have a characteriza ...
