We give a new and elementary proof that the number of elastic collisions of a finite number of balls in the Euclidean space is finite. We show that if there are $n$ balls of equal masses and radii 1, and at the time of a collision between…
In a recent paper, Phys. Rev E 81, 041137 (2010), the author attempts to derive ten necessary conditions for stability of dissipative fluids and plasmas. Assuming the validity of the local equilibrium principle, these criteria have been…
It is shown that $3$ disjoint sets with fixed Gaussian volumes that partition $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ with nearly minimum total Gaussian surface area must be close to adjacent $120$ degree sectors, when $n\geq2$. These same results hold for any…
A new and very general technique for simulating solid-fluid suspensions has been described in a previous paper (Part I); the most important feature of the new method is that the computational cost scales with the number of particles. In…

We study the elastic response of composites of rods embedded in elastic media. We calculate the micro-mechanical response functions, and bulk elastic constants as functions of rod density. We find two fixed points for Poisson's ratio with…
The elastic response of dense suspensions under an impact is studied using coupled Lattice Boltzmann Method and Discrete Element Method (LBM-DEM) and its reduced model. We succeed to extract the elastic force acting on the impactor in dense…
This paper is concerned with regular flows of incompressible weakly viscoelastic fluids which obey a differential constitutive law of Oldroyd type. We study the newtonian limit for weakly viscoelastic fluid flows in $\R^N$ or $\T^N$ for…
We obtain an estimate for the expected subspace robust Wasserstein distance between any probability measure on the unit ball of a separable Hilbert space, and its empirical distribution from $n$ i.i.d. samples.
We provide a new existence result for weak solutions to the one-dimensional Euler equations with a maximal density constraint, corresponding to a unilateral constraint on the density. Such models arise in the description of congestion…
In this paper we investigate the Bose-Einstein condensation of massive spin-1 particles in an Einstein universe. The system is considered under relativistic conditions taking into consideration the possibility of particle-antiparticle pair…
The Poisson Nernst-Planck equations for charge concentration and electric potential in a ball is a model of electro-diffusion of ions in the head of a neuronal dendritic spine. We study the relaxation and the steady state when an initial…
We study the bulk viscosity of a pion gas in unitarized Chiral Perturbation Theory at low and moderate temperatures, below any phase transition to a quark-gluon plasma phase. We argue that inelastic processes are irrelevant and…
We consider one-dimensional Mott variable-range hopping with a bias, and prove the linear response as well as the Einstein relation, under an assumption on the exponential moments of the distances between neighboring points. In a previous…
Understanding the physics of blood is challenging due to its nature as a suspension of soft particles and the fact that typical problems involve different scales. This is valid also for numerical investigations. In fact, many computational…
