Filtered schemes for first-order Hamilton-Jacobi equations

We introduce a new class of "filtered" schemes for some first order nonlinear Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equations. The work follows recent ideas of Froese and Oberman (SIAM J. Numer. Anal., Vol 51, pp.4...

Stampanti 3D: una nuova sfida per la matematica applicata

E' in arrivo una nuova rivoluzione industriale? Molti esperti credono di si. Le stampanti 3D di nuova generazione permettono - con un investimento minimo - di creare o replicare qualsiasi piccolo ogge...

A Destination--Preserving Model for Simulating Wardrop Equilibria in Traffic Flow on Networks

In this talk we present a LWR-like model for traffic flow on networks which allows one to track several groups of drivers, each of them being characterized only by their destination in the network. Th...

Alcune tecniche di accelerazione per la risoluzione numerica di equazioni di Hamilton-Jacobi del secondo ordine

In questo seminario presenterò una nota approssimazione semi-Lagrangiana per equazioni di Hamilton-Jacobi del secondo ordine, introducendo alcune modifiche e combinando alcuni concetti chiave che perm...

Guidance and Control for Spacecraft Planar Re-phasing via Input Shaping and Differential Drag

Maneuvering of low Earth orbiting small spacecraft can be executed without propellant via atmospheric differential drag. This talk introduces analytical guidance solutions for short distance spacecraf...

Zubov's method for interconnected systems - a dissipative formulation

We study the domain of attraction of an asymptotically stable fixed point of the feedback interconnections of two nonlinear systems. For each subsystem we introduce an auxiliary system and assume that...

A model problem for Mean Field Games on networks

We consider the model problem "What time does the meeting start?" as a prototype for a general class of optimization problems with a continuum of players, called Mean Field Games. Since the dynamics o...

Optimal control of consensus models

In this talk we review basic alignment models appearing in high-dimensional, social dynamics of multi-agent systems. We study the emergence of self-organization phenomena, and the convergence to conse...

Proper extension of minimum problems with unbounded controls

I will introduce the notion of "limit solution" for nonlinear o.d.e.'s where a control u is present together its time derivative. The control u is allowed to be a discontinuous integrable function,so ...

Non-Lambertian Models for the Shape from Shading problem: Analysis and Approximation via a Semi-Lagrangian Approach

The Shape--from--Shading problem is a well known ill-posed problem. Several contributions have addressed the case of Lambertian surfaces improving the model with the introduction of perspective deform...

Schemi numerici conservativi per l'integrazione di problemi di trasporto non lineari

Lo Jacobiano di Arakawa è uno dei più noti schemi numerici per l'integrazione dell'equazione di vorticità per flussi bidimensionali incomprimibili. La sua importanza è dovuta alle proprietà mimetiche ...

Analisi ed approssimazione di alcuni modelli non Lambertiani per il problema di Shape-from-Shading

In questo seminario presenteremo in un'unica formulazione matematica due modelli di riflessione per la risoluzione del problema di Shape-from-Shading nel caso di superfici non Lambertiane (il modello ...
