  Epithelial monolayers are one-cell thick tissue sheets that separate internal and external environments. As part of their function, they have to withstand extrinsic mechanical stresses applied at high strain rates. However, ...
• Planar differential growth rates initiate precise fold positions in complex epithelia

  Application of inverse SEA models to obtain the Coupling LossFactor in structural junctions from numerical simulations 

  Poblet-Puig, Jordi; Rodríguez Ferran, Antonio (2019)
  Conference report
  Open Access

  An inverse SEA procedure that mimics the Experimental SEA (ESEA) is used in order to obtain the Coupling Loss Factor (CLF) of structural junctions. The main differences with respect to ESEA are that: 1) the subsystem ...
• Multiscale proper generalized decomposition based on the partition of unity
