    • Bedregal, Carlos; Rivara Zúñiga, María Cecilia (Elsevier, 2014)
      Longest-edge refinement algorithms were designed to iteratively refine the mesh for finite-element applications by maintaining mesh quality (assuring a bound on the smallest angle). In this paper we improve geometrical ...
    • Lou, Yuan; Martínez Salazar, Salomé; Poláčik, Peter (ACADEMIC PRESS INC ELSEVIER SCIENCE, 2006-11-15)
      A two-species Lotka-Volterra competition-diffusion model with spatially inhomogeneous reaction tenns is investigated. The two species are assumed to be identical except for their interspecific competition coefficients. ...
    • Clerc Gavilán, Marcel; Coullet, Pierre; Tirapegui Zurbano, Enrique (1999-11-08)
      We describe the two generic instabilities which arise in quasireversible systems and show that their normal forms are the well-known real Lorenz equations and the Maxwell-Bloch equations. We present for the first time ...
    • Darragh, Lisa (Natl Council Teachers Mathematics-NCTM, 2018)
      Images of mathematics and mathematicians are often negative and stereotyped. These portrayals may work to construct our impressions of mathematics and influence students' identity with and future participation in the ...
    • Contreras, Sebastián; Dehning, Jonas; Mohr, Sebastián B.; Bauer, Simón; Spitzner, Paul F.; Priesemann, Viola (Amer Assoc Advancement Science, 2021)
      The traditional long-term solutions for epidemic control involve eradication or population immunity. Here, we analytically derive the existence of a third viable solution: a stable equilibrium at low case numbers, where ...
    • Chaparro Molano, Germán; Ramírez Suarez, Oscar Leonardo; Restrepo Gaitán, Oscar Alberto; Martínez Mercado, Alexander Marcial (IOP Publishing Ltd, 2017)
      We set out to evaluate the potential of the Colombian Andes for millimeter-wave astronomical observations. Previous studies for astronomical site testing in this region have suggested that nighttime humidity and cloud cover ...
    • Akbari Fakhrabadi, A.; Sathishkumar, P.; Ramam, K.; Palma, R.; Mangalaraja, R. V. (Elsevier, 2015)
      La0.6Sr0.4Co0.2Fe0.8O3 − δ (LSCF) perovskite nanostructures were synthesised using a 42 kHz ultrasound assisted synthesis technique for the fabrication of electrodes in the intermediate and/or low temperature solid ...
