Variational approximation method for the long-range force transmission in biopolymer gels [PDF]
The variational principle of minimum free energy (MFEVP) has been widely used in the study of soft matter statics. MFEVP can be used not only to derive equilibrium equations (including both bulk equations and boundary conditions), but also to develop direct variational methods (such as Ritz method) to find approximate solutions to these equilibrium ...

Variational Methods for Normal Integration [PDF]
The need for an efficient method of integration of a dense normal field is inspired by several computer vision tasks, such as shape-from-shading, photometric stereo, deflectometry, etc. Inspired by edge-preserving methods from image processing, we study in this paper several variational approaches for normal integration, with a focus on non-rectangular

On three-step iterative schemes associated with general quasi-variational inclusions
In this paper, we investigate new classes of general quasi-variational inclusions. In this regard, we prove that general quasi-variational inclusions and fixed point problems are equivalent.

A Variational Formulation of Dissipative Quasicontinuum Methods [PDF]
Lattice systems and discrete networks with dissipative interactions are successfully employed as meso-scale models of heterogeneous solids. As the application scale generally is much larger than that of the discrete links, physically relevant simulations

Off-The-Grid Variational Sparse Spike Recovery: Methods and Algorithms
Gridless sparse spike reconstruction is a rather new research field with significant results for the super-resolution problem, where we want to retrieve fine-scale details from a noisy and filtered acquisition.

On a variation of Sands′ method [PDF]
A subset of a finite additive abelian group G is a Z‐set if for all a ∈ G, na ∈ G for all n ∈ Z. The group G is called “Z‐good” if in every factorization G = A ⊕ B, where A and B are Z‐sets at least one factor is periodic. Otherwise G is called “Z‐bad.”The purpose of this paper is to investigate factorizations of finite ablian groups which arise from a

Iterative Schemes for a Class of Mixed Trifunction Variational Inequalities
We use the auxiliary principle technique to suggest and analyze some iterative methods for solving a new class of variational inequalities, which is called the mixed trifunction variational inequality.

Variational Methods for Biomolecular Modeling
Structure, function and dynamics of many biomolecular systems can be characterized by the energetic variational principle and the corresponding systems of partial differential equations (PDEs).
