A hierarchical multilevel Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm with applications to uncertainty quantification in subsurface flow
In this paper we address the problem of the prohibitively large computational cost of existing Markov chain Monte Carlo methods for large--scale applications with high dimensional parameter spaces, e.g. in uncertainty...
Carbon Nanotubes Inhibit Biofilm Formation on Polydimethylsiloxane
Silicone-based materials, such as polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), are widely used in the construction of biomedical devices due to their biocompatibility and biostability. Despite these benefits, biofilms form readily on silicone...

Theory of light-matter interaction in nematic liquid crystals and the second Painlevé equation
Marcel G. Clerc, Juan Diego Dávila, Michał Kowalczyk, Panayotis Smyrnelis, Estefania Vidal-henriquez
Aug 01, 2017
We study global minimizers of an energy functional arising as a thin sample limit in the theory of light-matter interaction in nematic liquid crystals. We show that depending on the parameters various defects are predicted by...

Therapeutic Potential of Astrocyte Transplantation.
Cell transplantation is an attractive treatment strategy for a variety of brain disorders, as it promises to replenish lost functions and rejuvenate the brain. In particular, transplantation of astrocytes has come into light...
A new algorithm for electrostatic interactions in Monte Carlo simulations of charged particles
To minimise systematic errors in Monte Carlo simulations of charged particles, long range electrostatic interactions have to be calculated accurately and efficiently. Standard approaches, such as Ewald summation or the naive...
