Organelles are the smallest functional parts of eukaryotic cells. Among them, some are membrane-bound such as the nucleus, the endoplasmic reticulum, or the Golgi apparatus, each of them with essential biological functions. ...
El tratamiento intrínseco de cuestiones relacionadas con la Teoría de Control no lineal a través de la aplicación de técnicas propias de la geometría diferencial ha sido en los últimos años un tema de interés para muy ...
This thesis develops a large eddy simulation framework for engineering applications using the finite element method. It focuses on the numerical formulation, the wall modelling approach as well as the generation of turbulent ...
This thesis presents a hybrid vertex/cell-centred approach to mechanically simulate planar cellular monolayers undergoing cell reorganisation. Cell centres are represented by a triangular nodal network, while the cell ...
This thesis proposes a new computational model for the efficient simulation of crack propagation, through the combination of a phase-field model in small subdomains around crack tips and a discontinuous model in the rest ...
The theories of gravity are one of the most important topics in theoretical physics and mathematical physics nowadays. The classical formulation of gravity uses the Hilbert-Einstein Lagrangian, which is a singular ...
This thesis is focused on particle transport in the context of high computing performance (HPC) in its widest range, from the numerical modeling to the physics involved, including its parallelization and post-process. The ...
Lipid membranes are thin objects that form the main separation structure in cells. They have remarkable mechanical properties; while behaving as a solid shell against bending, they exhibit in-plane fluidity. These two ...
