      Article
      Accés obert
      At the mesoscopic scale, the brain can be understood as a collection of interacting neuronal oscillators, but the extent to which its sustained activity is due to coupling among brain areas is still unclear. Herewe address ...

      Article
      Accés obert
      A planar crack generically segments into an array of “daughter cracks” shaped as tilted facets when loaded with both a tensile stress normal to the crack plane (mode I) and a shear stress parallel to the crack front (mode ...

      Pons Rivero, Antonio Javier (2012-05-10)
      Article
      Accés restringit per política de l'editorial
      Crack propagation in materials is rarely welcome. But carefully engineered cracks produced during the deposition of a film on silicon can be used to efficiently create pre-designed patterns of nanometre-scale channels.

      Jedynak, Maciej; Pons Rivero, Antonio Javier; García Ojalvo, Jordi (2015-02-16)
      Article
      Accés obert
      The brain is known to operate in multiple coexisting frequency bands. Increasing experimental evidence suggests that interactions between those distinct bands play a crucial role in brain processes, but the dynamical ...

      Article
      Accés obert
      Symbolic methods of analysis are valuable tools for investigating complex time-dependent signals. In particular, the ordinal method defines sequences of symbols according to the ordering in which values appear in a time ...
    • Excitation/inhibition patterns in a system of coupled cortical columns

      Text en actes de congrés
      Accés restringit per política de l'editorial
      We study how excitation and inhibition are distributed mesoscopically in small brain regions, by means of a computational model of coupled cortical columns described by neural mass models. Two cortical columns coupled ...

      Article
      Accés obert
      Data assimilation, defined as the fusion of data with preexisting knowledge, is particularly suited to elucidating underlying phenomena from noisy/insufficient observations. Although this approach has been widely used in ...
    • Helical crack-front instability in mixed-mode fracture 

      Pons Rivero, Antonio Javier; Karma, Alain (2010-03-04)
      Article
      Accés restringit per política de l'editorial
      [...]We show that the dynamically preferred unstable wavelength is governed by the balance of the destabilizing effect of far-field stresses and the stabilizing effect of cohesive forces on the process zone scale, and we ...
    • Inferring the connectivity of coupled chaotic oscillators using Kalman filtering 

      Forero Ortiz, Edwar Andres; Tirabassi, Giulio; Masoller Alonso, Cristina; Pons Rivero, Antonio Javier (Nature, 2021-11-17)
      Article
      Accés obert
      Inferring the interactions between coupled oscillators is a significant open problem in complexity science, with multiple interdisciplinary applications. While the Kalman filter (KF) technique is a well-known tool, widely ...
