The daily exposure of social media users to propaganda and disinformation campaigns has reinvigorated the need to investigate the local and global patterns of diffusion of different (mis)information content on social media. Echo chambers and influencers are often deemed responsible of both the… |

The need for anti-HIV-1 vaccines is universally recognized. Although several potential vaccine formulations are being tested in clinical trials, the complexity of the viral system and the length of the experimentation required and its costs makes the goal of obtaining such a vaccine still elusive.… |

The dynamics of active colloids is very sensitive to the presence of boundaries and interfaces which therefore can be used to control their motion. Here we analyze the dynamics of active colloids adsorbed at a fluid-fluid interface. By using a mesoscopic numerical approach which relies on an… |

In the Cultural Heritage area it is of fundamental importance to characterize and classify the conservation state of the materials constituting ancient monuments, in order to study and monitor their decay. Generally the decay diagnosis is provided by naked eye analysis done by expert… |

In this work the phenomenon of contact inhibition of growth is studied by applying an individual based model and a continuum multiphase model to describe cell colony growth in vitro. The impact of different cell behavior in response to mechanical cues is investigated. The work aims at comparing the… |

Background: The high contagiousness and rapid spreading of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has caused a high number of critical to severe life-threatening cases, which required urgent hospital admission and treatment in intensive care units (ICUs). The pandemic has been a tough test for all… |

New computation algorithms for a fluid-dynamic mathematical model
of flows on networks are proposed, described and
tested.
First we improve the classical Godunov
scheme (G) for a special flux function,
thus obtaining a more efficient method, the Fast Godunov
scheme (FG) which reduces the number… |
