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...

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...

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...

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 ...

Reproducing Appearance with 3D Printers: An Optimization Approach

In this talk, we will present recent results on using existing 3D printer hardware to reproduce the look of physical materials. We will show that 3D printing can be seen as an optimization approach an...

Convergence of a Finite Volume Scheme for Nonlocal Conservation Laws in Several Space Dimensions

The recent literature has introduced models based on nonlocal conservation laws in several space dimensions, e.g., see [3] for crowd dynamics applications or [1] for sedimentation processes. The Lax-F...

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...

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...

Simulation and model predictive control of two-phase flows

We present a fully practical residual-based adaptive simulation framework for two-phase flows with variable densities governed by a Cahn-Hilliard Navier-Stokes model with double obstacle potential. In...

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 ...
