This course is an introduction to the Unique Continuation (UC) Property in the sense of Hardy Un-certainty Principle: consider u(t,x) a solution to an evolution equation at time t and space variable x. Assuming that u(0,x) and u(1,x) decay sufficiently fast for large |x|, then…

ABSTRACT Theoretical fluid dynamics is a topic of huge current interest, with a history of more than three hundred years old, at the intersection of the physical area of fluid mechanics, the engineering of aero and hidro vessels, the analysis of partial differential equations and…

The main goal of the lecture will be to give an overview of the problem studied in the field of kinetic equations. Those PDEs appear naturally in the modelling of systems composed by a large number of objects which are all subjected to the same…

Geometric modelling and computer-aided design (CAD) are fundamental disciplines to represent real-life objects in the digital world. In this course, we will discuss mathematical concepts of geometric modelling, particularly focusing on problems appearing in computer numerically controlled (CNC) machining. We introduce the basics of differential geometry…

In this course we present in detail the fundamentals of the theory of coarse-graining, explore different applications that range from thermodynamics of small systems to complex fluids (colloidal suspensions and other viscoelastic fluids), and describe particle-based simulation methodologies like DPD and SDPD for the simulation…

This course is devoted to the study of numerical techniques used for simulating dynamical systems, especially conservative systems such as those in celestial mechanics and molecular models. In a dynamical simulation, an integrator replaces a differential equation in continuous time by a difference equation defining…
