Many viruses, such as SARS-CoV-2 or Influenza, possess envelopes decorated with surface proteins (a.k.a. spikes). Depending on the virus type, a large variability is present in the surface-proteins number, morphology and ...

In this paper the definition of Zindler-type hypersurfaces is introduced in $\mathbb{R}^4$ as a generalization of planar Zindler curves. After recalling some properties of planar Zindler curves, it is shown that Zindler ...

There are some known properties on curves of constant width and Zindler curves and their relationship with offsets and front tire-track curves in convex geometry. In this work, a generalization of all these concepts and ...

Certain applications that analyze damping effects require the solution of quadratic eigenvalue problems (QEPs). We use refined isogeometric analysis (rIGA) to solve quadratic eigenproblems. rIGA discretization, while ...

We study the flow around a periodic array of cylinders using a mesoscopic viscoelastic fluid that mimics polymeric solutions. We model our fluid employing a novel mesoscopic method based on Smoothed Dissipative Particle ...

The microstructure-supported design of engineering components is recently gaining attention due to their high strength-to-weight and high stiffness-to-weight properties. The present study investigates the hybrid manufacturing ...

In this work, we propose a combined approach of model-based and machine learning techniques for damage identification in bridge structures. First, a finite element model is calibrated with real data from experimental ...

Exponential time integrators are well-established discretization methods for time semilinear systems of ordinary differential equations. These methods use (Formula presented.) functions, which are matrix functions related ...

A novel method for trochoidal flank milling of 3D cavities bounded by free-form surfaces is proposed. Existing 3D trochoidal milling methods use on-market milling tools whose shape is typically cylindrical or conical, and ...

Time efficiency is one of the more critical concerns in computational fluid dynamics simulations of industrial applications. Extensive research has been conducted to improve the underlying numerical schemes to achieve time ...
