A Multi-Fidelity Parametric Framework for Reduced-Order Modeling using Optimal Transport-based Interpolation: Applications to Diffused-Interface Two-Phase Flows

This paper presents a non-intrusive, multi-fidelity reduced-order modeling framework that utilizes Optimal Transport-based displacement interpolation to efficiently correct low-fidelity models and construct accurate parametric surrogates for complex, nonlinear two-phase flow simulations.

Continuous Ventricular Volumetric Quantification in Patients with Arrhythmias using Real-Time 3D CMR-MOTUS

This paper presents a real-time 3D CMR-MOTUS method that enables continuous, beat-to-beat volumetric quantification of cardiac function in patients with arrhythmias, successfully overcoming motion artifacts to reveal functional heterogeneity and bimodal ejection fraction distributions obscured by conventional imaging techniques.

Volumetric effects in viscous flows in circular and annular tubes with wavy walls

This paper demonstrates that the common practice of maintaining a constant mean radius in wavy-walled tube models inadvertently increases interior volume, leading to significant discrepancies (up to 50%) in flow rate and hydraulic resistance compared to constant-volume models for both steady and peristaltic viscous flows, and provides a scaling law to relate these two cases.

Casimir Effect for a Massive Scalar Field in Lorentz-Violating Aether Compactification

This paper investigates the Casimir effect for a massive scalar field in a five-dimensional Lorentz-violating aether compactification, deriving closed-form expressions that reveal how the quasiperiodic parameter β\beta controls the transition between attractive and repulsive forces, while the Lorentz-violating parameter αϕ\alpha_\phi amplifies vacuum interactions and the compactification ratio a/ba/b stabilizes the system, particularly in high-compactification regimes.

The Gaussian Wave for Graphs of Finite Cone Type

This paper generalizes Backhausz and Szegedy's result on the infinite regular tree by proving that the Gaussian wave is the unique typical process with Green's function covariance for any infinite tree of finite cone type satisfying mild expansion, thereby establishing the convergence of local eigenvector distributions to the Gaussian wave for random bipartite biregular graphs and generic configuration models.
