  Mechanical oscillations in biological tissues as a result of delayed rest-length changes 

  Muñoz Romero, José; Dingle, Monica; Wenzel, Manuel (American Institute of Physics (AIP), 2018-11-26)
  Article
  Accés obert

  Oscillatory behavior in tissue biology is ubiquitous and may be observed in the form of either chemical or mechanical signals. We present here and solve a mechanical cell model that exhibits oscillations emerging from ...
• Active superelasticity in three-dimensional epithelia of controlled shape 

  Latorre Ibars, Ernest; Kale, Sohan Sudhir; Casares, Laura; Arroyo Balaguer, Marino (Macmillan Publishers, 2018-11)
  Article
  Accés restringit per política de l'editorial

  Fundamental biological processes are carried out by curved epithelial sheets that enclose a pressurized lumen. How these sheets develop and withstand three-dimensional deformations has remained unclear. Here we combine ...
• Numerical estimation of the bearing capacity of resistance spot welds in martensitic boron steels using a J-integral fracture criterion 

  Dorribo Dorribo, Daniel; Greve, Lars; Díez, Pedro; Arias Vicente, Irene; Larráyoz Izcara, Xabier (2018-08-01)
  Article

  Piezoelectric mimicry of flexoelectricity 

  Abdollahi Hosnijeh, Amir; Vazquez Sancho, Fabian; Catalan, Gustau (American Institute of Physics (AIP), 2018-11-15)
  Article
  Accés obert

  The origin of “giant” flexoelectricity, orders of magnitude larger than theoretically predicted, yet frequently observed, is under intense scrutiny. There is mounting evidence correlating giant flexoelectriclike effects ...
• An upwind cell centred Total Lagrangian finite volume algorithm for nearly incompressible explicit fast solid dynamic applications 

  Haider, Jibran; Lee, Chun Hean; Gil, Antonio; Huerta, Antonio; Bonet, Javier (2018-10-01)
  Article
  Accés restringit per política de l'editorial

  The paper presents a new computational framework for the numerical simulation of fast large strain solid dynamics, with particular emphasis on the treatment of near incompressibility. A complete set of first order hyperbolic ...
• A locking-free face-centred finite volume (FCFV) method for linear elastostatics 

  Sevilla, Rubén; Giacomini, Matteo; Huerta, Antonio (2019-02-01)
  Article
  Accés restringit per política de l'editorial

  A face-centred finite volume (FCFV) method is proposed for linear elastostatic problems. The FCFV is a mixed hybrid formulation, featuring a system of first-order equations, that defines the unknowns on the faces (edges ...
• A superconvergent HDG method for stokes flow with strongly enforced symmetry of the stress tensor 

  Giacomini, Matteo; Karkoulias, Alexandros; Sevilla, Rubén; Huerta, Antonio (2018-12)
  Article
  Accés restringit per política de l'editorial

  This work proposes a superconvergent hybridizable discontinuous Galerkin (HDG) method for the approximation of the Cauchy formulation of the Stokes equation using same degree of polynomials for the primal and mixed variables. ...

  Sampling-based stochastic analysis of the PKN model for hydraulic fracturing 

  Garikapati, Hasini; V. Verhoosel, Clemens; van Brummelen, Harald; Zlotnik, Sergio; Díez, Pedro (2018-10-02)
  Article
  Accés obert

  Hydraulic fracturing processes are surrounded by uncertainty, as available data is typically scant. In this work, we present a sampling-based stochastic analysis of the hydraulic fracturing process by considering various ...
• Reshaping of large aeronautical structural parts: a simplified simulation approach 

  Mena Andrade, Ramiro; Aguado, José Vicente; Guinard, S.; Huerta, Antonio (American Institute of Physics (AIP), 2018)
  Text en actes de congrés
  Accés restringit per política de l'editorial

  Large aeronautical structural parts present important distortions after machining. This problem is caused by the presence of residual stresses, which are developed during previous manufacturing steps (quenching). Before ...
