An adaptive meshfree method for phase-field models of biomembranes. Part I: Approximation with maximum-entropy basis functions
(2013-09)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyWe present an adaptive meshfree method to approximate phase-field models of biomembranes. In such models, the Helfrich curvature elastic energy, the surface area, and the enclosed volume of a vesicle are written as functionals ... -
An adaptive meshfree method for phase-field models of biomembranes. Part II: A Lagrangian approach for membranes in viscous fluids
(2013-09)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyWe present a Lagrangian phase-field method to study the low Reynolds number dynamics of vesicles embedded in a viscous fluid. In contrast to previous approaches, where the field variables are the phase-field and the fluid ... -
Approximation of phase-field models with meshfree methods: exploring biomembrane dynamics
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2014-10-28)
Doctoral thesis
Open AccessLas biomembranas constituyen la estructura de separación fundamental en las celulas animales, y son importantes en el diseño de sistemas bioinspirados. Su simulación presenta desafíos, especialmente cuando ésta implica ... -
Computational evaluation of the flexoelectric effect in dielectric solids
(American Institute of Physics (AIP), 2014-09-07)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyFlexoelectricity is a size-dependent electromechanical mechanism coupling polarization and strain gradient. It exists in a wide variety of materials, and is most noticeable for nanoscale objects, where strain gradients are ... -
Pasarela peatonal mixta sobre la C-65 en Llagostera
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2009-11-01)
Master thesis (pre-Bologna period)
Open AccessEl punto PK 6+840 de la C-65 es un punto barrera para varios intereses de este enclave de la Costa Brava. A un lado de la autovía se sitúa uno de los cámpings más importantes de la zona, el camping Ridaura, junto al que ... -
Procedimiento informático para el análisis límite de puentes arco de obra de fábrica
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2007-07-01)
Master thesis (pre-Bologna period)
Restricted access - author's decisionEste estudio se centrará principalmente en el arco clásico, es decir, aquel que busca mediante la forma resistir esfuerzos que a priori resultarían fatales para el material utilizado, una obra de fábrica. Constituye, en ... -
Simulation of the dynamics of bio-membranes in a viscous fluid with a phasefield variational lagrangian approach
(CIMNE, 2011)
Conference report
Open AccessBio-membranes are the basic separation structure in animal cells. Their complex behaviour, rich physical properties, formation and dynamics have been the object of experimental and theoretical investigation for biologists, ...
