Wulff shape characterizations in overdetermined anisotropic elliptic problems
2017
We study some overdetermined problems for possibly anisotropic degenerate elliptic PDEs, including the well-known Serrin's overdetermined problem, and we prove the corresponding Wulff shape characterizations by using some integral identities and just one pointwise inequality. Our techniques provide a somehow unified approach to this variety of problems.
More indefinite integrals from Riccati equations
2019
ABSTRACTTwo new methods for obtaining indefinite integrals of a special function using Riccati equations are presented. One method uses quadratic fragments of the Riccati equation, the solutions of...

1976
Based on a new idea of the author, a new proof of J. Moser's twist mapping theorem is presented.
Solving coupled Riccati matrix differential systems
1991
Abstract We start by noting that coupled Riccati matrix differential systems appearing in differential games may be considered as a single rectangular Riccati equation. An explicit solution of the coupled differential system in terms of a solution of the associated algebraic Riccati equation is given.
Wronskian Addition Formula and Darboux-Pöschl-Teller Potentials
2013
For the famous Darboux-Pöschl-Teller equation, we present new wronskian representation both for the potential and the related eigenfunctions. The simplest application of this new formula is the explicit description of dynamics of the DPT potentials and the action of the KdV hierarchy. The key point of the proof is some evaluation formulas for special wronskian determinant.
Detection of antigen-specific T-cells with MHC/peptide-tetramer-complexes
2002
Abstract Tetramer analysis is a novel technique in immunological research that has dramatically changed our knowledge of the immune response to viral and bacterial pathogens, to tumors and in autoimmune disease. Through the formation of major histocompatibility complex (MHC)/peptide-tetrameric complexes it can provide accurate counts of antigen-specific T-cells and it allows their phenotypical and functional analysis. We review the strengths of this method and use the analysis of peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) from a patient with melanoma as a paradigm for the detection of tetramer-binding T-cells. The implementation of tetramer-guided analysis in immunomonitoring allows the ex vivo tes…
Wireless battery charging: E-bike application
2013
Nowadays, Inductive Power Transfer (IPT) represents a widely investigated issue with respect to modern battery charging methods, by providing a wireless solution. IPT is applied across a large variety of applications, from Watt to kWatt power levels. Although IPT features great benefits in terms of safety and comfort, the most significant drawback consists of a relatively poor power conversion efficiency. In this paper, a 100W wireless charging equipment for E-bikes which improves efficiency is proposed. Complete magnetic structure design, as well as transmitter and receiver efficient architectures, are deeply exposed. The efficiency of the designed solution is shown by simulation results.
Wireless battery charging for electric bicycles
2017
The contactless solution is increasingly spreading as method of battery charging for Electric Vehicles (EVs). The standard technology of contactless EV battery charging is based on the Inductive Power Transfer (IPT) between two coupled coils, one connected to the electrical grid and the other one connected to the rechargeable battery. The IPT provides benefits in terms of safety and comfort, due to the absence of a plug-in operation. In this paper, an overview on the IPT applied to the battery charging of electric bicycles is provided, with some general considerations on the technical implications. Moreover, a prototype of contactless battery charging for E-bikes is proposed and described.
Efficient contactless power transfer system for EVs
2016
Based on the inductive power transfer (IPT), the contactless approach allows safe and comfortable operations of battery charging for Electric Vehicles (EVs). In this paper, a contactless system particularly suitable for E-bike battery charging is proposed. A practical realization of the system has been carried out, aiming at the system evaluation in terms of working and efficiency. Through a phase shift modulation, a power regulation has been implemented. The target power level is 100 W.
