Localization of defects via residence time measures
Emilio N. M. Cirillo, Alessandro Ciallella, Barbara Vantaggi
We show that residence time measure can be used to identify the geometrical and transmission properties of a defect along a path. The model we study is based on a one--dimensional…
Deterministic reversible model of non-equilibrium phase transitions and stochastic counterpart
Emilio N. M. Cirillo, Matteo Colangeli, Adrian Muntean +2
N point particles move within a billiard table made of two circular cavities connected by a straight channel. The usual billiard dynamics is modified so that it remains determinist…
Diffusion in inhomogeneous media with periodic microstructures
Micol Amar, Daniele Andreucci, Emilio N. M. Cirillo
Diffusion in inhomogeneous materials can be described by both the Fick and Fokker--Planck diffusion equations. Here, we study a mixed Fick and Fokker-Planck diffusion problem with…
When diffusion faces drift: consequences of exclusion processes for bi--directional pedestrian flows
Emilio N. M. Cirillo, Matteo Colangeli, Adrian Muntean +1
Stochastic particle--based models are useful tools for describing the collective movement of large crowds of pedestrians in crowded confined environments. Using descriptions based…
Stability of the stationary solutions of the Allen-Cahn equation with non-constant stiffness
Paolo Buttà, Emilio N. M. Cirillo, Giulio Sciarra
We study the solutions of a generalized Allen-Cahn equation deduced from a Landau energy functional, endowed with a non-constant higher order stiffness. We assume the stiffness to…
Anticipation decides on lane formation in pedestrian counterflow -- a simulation study
Emilio N. M. Cirillo, Adrian Muntean
Human crowds base most of their behavioral decisions upon anticipated states of their walking environment. We explore a minimal version of a lattice model to study lanes formation…
