Generalizations of the Dirichlet Problem for Bianalytic Functions
ABSTRACT We prove the Dirichlet problem for second‐order iterated Vekua equations, a natural generalization of the Bitsadze equation, is well‐posed when the boundary condition is defined as a product of an exponential function and a polynomial on a non‐degenerate conic that is not a circumference.

A Phase‐Field Model for Quasi‐Dynamic Rupture Nucleation and Propagation of In‐Plane Faults
ABSTRACT Computational modeling of faulting processes is an essential tool for understanding earthquake mechanics but remains challenging due to the structural and material complexities of fault zones. The phase‐field method has recently enabled unified modeling of fault propagation and off‐fault damage within a fracture‐mechanics‐based framework ...

ABSTRACT The classical theory of porous media is based on assumed micro‐homogeneity of the solid phase (skeleton). Based on the drained macroscale elastic stiffness, it is possible to analytically compute auxiliary properties such as the Biot‐Willis and Skempton parameters.

Safeguarded Reinforcement Learning for Dynamic Environments
This paper uses a combination of Reinforcement Learning and Funnel Control to train a fast and safe controller for systems operating in changing environments. Furthermore, the presented formulation overcomes former limitations associated with the need for predefined reference trajectories.

Adaptive Sliding‐Mode Control of a Perturbed Diffusion Process With Pointwise In‐Domain Actuation
ABSTRACT A sliding mode–based adaptive control law is proposed for a class of diffusion processes featuring a spatially‐varying uncertain diffusivity and equipped with several point‐wise actuators located at the two boundaries of the spatial domain as well as in its interior.

Computing Skinning Weights via Convex Duality
We present an alternate optimization method to compute bounded biharmonic skinning weights. Our method relies on a dual formulation, which can be optimized with a nonnegative linear least squares setup. Abstract We study the problem of optimising for skinning weights through the lens of convex duality.

Hierarchical Optimization of the As‐Rigid‐As‐Possible Energy
Abstract The As‐Rigid‐As‐Possible (ARAP) energy [SA07] has become a versatile ingredient in various geometry processing and machine learning methods. The classic method for its minimization is a block coordinate descent, alternating between local rotation estimation and a global linear solve, which converges slowly for large problem instances.

Stability of Viscous Three‐Dimensional Stratified Couette Flow via Dispersion and Mixing
ABSTRACT This article explores the stability of stratified Couette flow in the viscous 3d$3d$ Boussinesq equations. In this system, mixing effects arise from the shearing background, and gravity acts as a restoring force leading to dispersive internal gravity waves.

ABSTRACT The previously introduced X‐FFT solver permits solving three‐dimensional linear elastic homogenization problems with high accuracy and efficiency. Due to the extended finite element discretization (X‐FEM), matrix‐inclusion problems may be approximated with the error convergence of interface‐conforming finite elements.
