This project presents the theoretical background in electrophysiology that is used as a basis in the development of numerical methods for the simulation of heart’s electrical activity. We discuss the mathematical models currently used in cardiac electrophy ...
A simple and general fabrication method for helical swimming micromachines by direct laser writing and e-beam evaporation is demonstrated. The magnetic helical devices exhibit varying magnetic shape anisotropy, yet always generate corkscrew motion using a ...
During embryonic development, the paraxial mesoderm becomes segmented into somites, within which proliferative muscle progenitors and muscle fibers establish the skeletal musculature. Here, we demonstrate that a gene network previously implicated in somite ...
In this Master thesis we aim at studying some physiological and computational aspects of the excitation-contraction mechanisms in the heart muscle. This phenomenon exhibits many complexities at different spatio-temporal scales. The relevance and applicabil ...
Abstract Mathematical modeling and simulation of a head stabilization platform. The stabilization platform is capable of moving on the pitch degree of freedom. The platform is modeled in two different approaches; considering only the mass of the platform ( ...
The vertebral column is a conserved anatomical structure that defines the vertebrate phylum. The periodic or segmental pattern of the vertebral column is established early in development when the vertebral precursors, the somites, are rhythmically produced ...
In a previous recent paper we discussed the limitations of the Fourier-based model in the prediction of visible moiré effects. Here, we extend the discussion to other mathematical models that are also being used in the moiré theory: the classical indicial ...
In a sailboat race, the navigator's attempts to plot the fastest possible course are hindered by shifty winds. We present mathematical models appropriate for this situation, which use statistical analysis of wind fluctuations and are amenable to stochastic ...
BACKGROUND: Acetate metabolism in skeletal muscle is regulated by acetylCoA synthetase (ACS). The main function of ACS is to provide cells with acetylCoA, a key molecule for numerous metabolic pathways including fatty acid and cholesterol synthesis and the ...
In this work we present a mathematical model of the evolution of aeolian sand dunes, in particular we consider the case of dunes formed by a mixture of sands with different characteristics. We first recall a basic model for the evolution of two dimensional ...
