Watching the movement of every cell in an adult animal all at once, researchers discovered ultra-fast cellular contractions. This research suggests a new role for cellular contractions in tissue ...

In this paper, we propose a new method for solving variational inclusion problems in Hilbert spaces. This algorithm uses two inertial terms to speed up the convergence. In order to avoid computing the ...
