Capillary phenomena are involved in many industrial processes, especially those dealing with composite manufacturing. However, their modelling is still challenging. Therefore, a finite element setting is proposed to better investigate this…

Understanding the organization of reaction fluxes in cellular metabolism from the stoichiometry and the topology of the underlying biochemical network is a central issue in systems biology. In this task, it is important to devise reasonable…

CFD-DEM is used to simulate solid-fluid systems. DEM models the motion of discrete particles while CFD models the fluid phase. Coupling both necessitates the calculation of the void fraction and the solid-fluid forces resulting in a…

The EMI (Extracellular-Membrane-Intracellular) model describes electrical activity in excitable tissue, where the extracellular and intracellular spaces and cellular membrane are explicitly represented. The model couples a system of partial…

We present a GPU-friendly framework for real-time implicit simulation of elastic material in the presence of frictional contacts. The integration of hyperelasticity, non-interpenetration contact, and friction in real-time simulations…

We apply the finite element cell-centered (FECC) scheme [2] to the solution of the nearly incompressible elasticity problem. By applying a technique of dual mesh, such a low-order finite element scheme can be constructed from any given mesh…

Bounded plasmas are characterized by a rapid but smooth transition from quasi-neutrality in the volume to electron depletion close to the electrodes and chamber walls. The thin non-neutral region, the boundary sheath, comprises only a small…

This paper presents a numerically exact cable finite element model for static nonlinear analysis of cable structures. The model derives the exact expression of the tension field using the geometrically exact beam theory coupled with the…

In this article we consider the widely used immersed finite element method (IFEM), in both explicit and implicit form, and its relationship to our more recent one-field fictitious domain method (FDM). We review and extend the formulation of…

We present an immersed boundary method to simulate the creeping motion of a rigid particle in a fluid described by the Stokes equations discretized thanks to a finite element strategy on unfitted meshes, called Phi-FEM, that uses the…

This paper presents existence and uniqueness results for a class of parabolic systems with non linear diffusion and nonlocal interaction. These systems can be viewed as regular perturbations of Wasserstein gradient flows. Here we extend…

We consider a class of liquid crystal free-boundary problems for which both the equilibrium shape and internal configuration of a system must simultaneously be determined, for example in films with air- or fluid-liquid crystal interfaces…

Plastic deformation of most crystalline materials is due to the motion of lattice dislocations. Therefore, the simulation of the interaction and dynamics of these defects has become state-of-the-art method to study work hardening, size…

This paper studies a discrete-time version of the Lucas-Uzawa endogenous growth model with physical and human capital in the presence of externalities. Existence of an optimal equilibrium is proved using tools from dynamic programming with…

We study certain significant properties of the equilibrium configurations of a rigid body subject to an undamped elastic restoring force, in the stream of a viscous liquid in an unbounded 3D domain. The motion of the coupled system is…

We show how to combine in a natural way (i.e. without any test nor switch) the conservative and non conservative formulations of an hyperbolic system that has a conservative form. This is inspired from two different class of schemes: the…

Diffusive motion of regulatory enzymes on biopolymers with eventual capture at a reaction site is a common feature in cell biology. Using a lattice gas model we study the impact of diffusion and capture for a microtubule polymerase and a…

The present contribution investigates the well-posedness of a PDE system describing the evolution of a nematic liquid crystal flow under kinematic transports for molecules of different shapes. More in particular, the evolution of the {\em…

It is frequent for active or living entities to find themselves embedded in a surrounding medium. Resulting composite systems are usually classified as either active fluids or active solids. Yet, in reality, particularly in the biological…

We develop robust and scalable fully implicit nonlinear finite element solvers for the simulations of biological transportation networks driven by the gradient flow minimization of a non-convex energy cost functional. Our approach employs a…
