  Tsitoura,F. ; Anastassi, Z.A. ; Marzuola, J.L. ; Kevrekidis, P.G. ; Frantzeskakis, D.J. (Article)

  Motivated by the recent theoretical study of (bright) soliton diode effects in systems with multiple scatterers, as well as by experimental investigations of soliton-impurity interactions, we consider some prototypical ...
• Spatiotemporal algebraically localized waveforms for a nonlinear Schrödinger model with gain and loss 

  Anastassi, Z.A. ; Fotopoulos,G. ; Frantzeskakis, D.J. ; Horikis, T.P. ; Karachalios, N.I. ; Kevrekidis, P.G. ; Stratis, I.G. ; Vetas, K. (Article)

  We consider the asymptotic behavior of the solutions of a nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) model incorporating linear and nonlinear gain/loss. First, we describe analytically the dynamical regimes (depending on the gain/loss ...
• Dark solitons near potential and nonlinearity steps 

  Tsitoura, F. ; Anastassi, Z.A. ; Marzuola, J.L. ; Kevrekidis, P.G. ; Frantzeskakis, D.J. (Article)

  We study dark solitons near potential and nonlinearity steps and combinations thereof, forming rectangular barriers. This setting is relevant to the contexts of atomic Bose-Einstein condensates (where such steps can be ...
• Broadening Aims and Building Support in Science, Technology and Innovation Policy: The Case of the European Research Area

• Explicit Almost P-Stable Runge-Kutta-Nyström Methods for the Numerical Solution of the Two-Body Problem 

  Kosti, A.A. ; Anastassi, Z.A. (Article)

  In this paper, three families of explicit Runge–Kutta–Nyström methods with three stages and third algebraic order are presented. Each family consists of one method with constant coefficients and one corresponding optimized ...
• A 6(4) optimized embedded Runge–Kutta–Nyström pair for the numerical solution of periodic problems 

  Anastassi, Z.A. ; Kosti, A.A. (Article)

  In this paper an optimization of the non-FSAL embedded RKN 6(4) pair with six stages of Moawwad El-Mikkawy, El-Desouky Rahmo is presented. The new method is derived after applying phase-fitting and amplification-fitting ...
• Application of portfolio optimization to drug discovery 

  Yevseyeva, Iryna ; Lenselink, Eelke B. ; Vries, Alicede ; IJzerman, Adriaan P. ; Deutz, A. ; Emmerich, Michael T. M. (Article)

  In this work, a problem of selecting a subset of molecules, which are potential lead candidates for drug discovery, is considered. Such molecule subset selection problem is formulated as a portfolio optimization, well known ...
• OUT-OF-PLANE COMPRESSIVE RESPONSE OF ADDITIVELY MANUFACTURED CROSS-PLY COMPOSITES 

  Yogeshvaran, R. N. ; Liu, B. G. ; Farukh, Farukh ; Kandan, K. (Conference)

  Digital manufacturing is employed to 3D print continuous Carbon, Glass and Kevlar fibre reinforced composites in [0°/90°] layup sequence. These 3D printed composites subjected to quasi-static, out-of-plane compression ...
• Inkjet printing of functional materials: a step forward to green electronics 

  Salaoru, Iulia ; Paul, Shashi ; Maswoud , S. (Conference)

  Nowadays the environmental impact of both used materials and manufacturing process of thin films is a major issue. The usage, storage, disposal protocol and the volume of waste material are also an environmental concern ...
• Effect of Cavity Vacuum Pressure Diminution on Thermal Performance of Triple Vacuum Glazing 

  Memon, Saim ; Farukh, Farukh ; Kandan, K. (Article)

  Long-term durability of the vacuum edge seal plays a significant part in retrofitting triple vacuum glazing (TVG) to existing buildings in achieving progress towards a zero-energy building (ZEB) target. Vacuum pressure ...
• Measuring the potential of zonal space heating controls to reduce energy use in UK homes: The case of un-furbished 1930s dwellings 

  Beizaee, A. ; Allinson, David ; Lomas, K. J. ; Foda, Ehab ; Loveday, D. L. (Article)

  A matched pair of 1930s semi-detached houses, in original condition and un-refurbished in terms of energy efficiency, were employed to measure the energy savings that might result from the use of zonal space heating control ...
