Sharp Stability Estimates for the Force-Based Quasicontinuum Approximation of Homogeneous Tensile Deformation
The accuracy of atomistic-to-continuum hybrid methods can be guaranteed only for deformations where the lattice configuration is stable for both the atomistic energy and the hybrid...

Filtering Random Layering Effects in Imaging
Objects that are buried deep in heterogeneous media produce faint echoes which are difficult to distinguish from the backscattered field. Sensor array imaging in such media cannot ...

A Novel Method for Solving Multiscale Elliptic Problems with Randomly Perturbed Data
We propose a method for efficient solution of elliptic problems with multiscale features and randomly perturbed coefficients. We use the multiscale finite element method (MsFEM) as...

Global Energy Matching Method for Atomistic-to-Continuum Modeling of Self-Assembling Biopolymer Aggregates
This paper studies mathematical models of biopolymer supramolecular aggregates that are formed by the self-assembly of single monomers. We develop a new multiscale numerical appro...

Simplified Modelling of a Thermal Bath, with Application to a Fluid Vortex System
Based on the thermodynamic concept of a reservoir, we investigate a computational model for interaction with unresolved degrees of freedom (a thermal bath). We assume that a finite...

Gyrokinetic Vlasov Equation in Three Dimensional Setting. Second Order Approximation
One of the main applications in plasma physics concerns the energy production through thermo-nuclear fusion. The controlled fusion requires the confinement of the plasma into a bo...
