The secretion of vesicles for intracellular transport often rely on the aggregation of specialized membrane-bound proteins into a coat able to curve cell membranes. The nucleation and growth of a protein coat is a kinetic process that…
Tank-treading, tumbling and trembling are different types of the vesicle behavior in an external flow. We derive a dynamical equation for nearly spherical vesicles enabling to establish a phase diagram of the system predicting the regimes.…
Simulations of vehicle/track interaction (VTI) in switches and crossings (S\&C) require taking into account the complexity of their geometry. The VTI can be handled via a co-simulation process between a finite element (FE) model of the…
A stochastic flow network is a directed graph with incoming edges (inputs) and outgoing edges (outputs), tokens enter through the input edges, travel stochastically in the network, and can exit the network through the output edges. Each…
