Brownian motion refers to the random movement that undergo mesosized particles suspended in a simple sol- vent. Einstein’s probabilistic approach to the Brownian motion is founded on the principal that ...
Alert Zenón, Ricard (Fecha de defensa: 2018-01-12)
In this thesis, we have studied mechanical aspects of some biological processes in cells and tissues, which we addressed by developing theoretical models based on the physics of soft active matter. The ...
Latella, Ivan (Fecha de defensa: 2016-06-27)
Two main topics are examined in this thesis: classical systems with long-range interactions and thermal radiation in the near-field regime. In the first part, we present a thermodynamic approach describing ...

The study of DNA from atomistic to mesoscopic level and connecting different resolution levels constitutes a major challenge since the new millennium. In the early 2000s, experiments could resolve for ...
Luna Escalante, Juan Camilo (Fecha de defensa: 2016-10-14)
Intercellular signalling is a mechanism by which cells communicate and mediate coordinated responses. In this Thesis we perform theoretical and computational analyses to evaluate spatio-temporal ...
Cereceda López, Eric (Fecha de defensa: 2023-07-14)
[eng] In this thesis, I study the behavior of confined colloidal particles in aqueous suspension driven through an optical potential. For this purpose, I use micro-meter polystyrene particles, which I ...
Tibau Martorell, Elisenda (Fecha de defensa: 2017-09-15)
In the present thesis, we propose to explore neuronal circuits at the mesoscale, an approach in which one monitors small populations of few thousand neurons and concentrates in the emergence of collective ...
Gràcia Condal, Adrià (Fecha de defensa: 2022-04-21)
The urgent need to reduce our footprint on the earth environment is leading to ever more stringent commitments to decrease greenhouse gases emissions, which entails one of the greatest challenges that ...
Estévez Priego, Estefanía (Fecha de defensa: 2019-11-22)
This thesis was part of the European consortium MESOBRAIN, a team of 5 organizations that joined efforts in nanofabrication, cell culturing, imaging and data analysis to build tailored human 3D networks. ...
Codina Sala, Joan (Fecha de defensa: 2018-10-09)
In this thesis we asses the phenomena of arising interactions in soft matter in coexistence with soft active matter. As a non-equilibrium bath we introduce ensembles of self-propelled particles, granular ...
