Exterior calculus and moving frames are used to describe curved elastic shells. The kinematics follow from the Lie-derivative on forms whereas the dynamics via stress-forms.
This paper introduces the 3D Peskin problem: a two-dimensional elastic membrane immersed in a three-dimensional steady Stokes flow. We obtain the equations that model this free boundary problem and show that they admit a boundary integral…
The main purpose of this work is to address the question of the utility of "effective constitutive relations" for problems in dynamics. This is done in the context of longitudinal shear waves in an elastic medium that is periodically…
An analytical theory is developed to describe the dynamics of a closed lipid bilayer membrane (vesicle) freely suspended in a general linear flow. Considering a nearly spherical shape, the solution to the creeping-flow equations is obtained…
We examine a steepest energy descent flow with obstacle constraint in higher order energy frameworks where the maximum principle is not available. We construct the flow under general assumptions using De Giorgi's minimizing movement scheme.…
Linear fluctuating hydrodynamics is a useful and versatile tool for describing fluids, as well as other systems with conserved fields, on a mesoscopic scale. In one spatial dimension, however, transport is anomalous, which requires to…
Active polar fluids exhibit spontaneous flow when sufficient active stress is generated by internal molecular mechanisms. This is also referred to as an active Fr\'{e}edericksz transition. Experiments have revealed the existence of…
We study positivity-preserving properties for the elastic flow of non-compact, complete curves in Euclidean space. Despite the fact that the canonical elastic energy is infinite in this context, we extend our recent work based on the…
Given a planar crystalline anisotropy, we study the crystalline elastic flow of immersed polygonal curves, possibly also unbounded. Assuming that the segments evolve by parallel translation (as it happens in the standard crystalline…
We study a simplified Ericksen-Leslie system modeling the flow of nematic liquid crystals with partially free boundary conditions. It is a coupled system between the Navier-Stokes equation for the fluid velocity with a transported heat flow…
We study families of smooth, embedded, regular planar curves $ \alpha : \left [-1,1 \right ]\times \left [0,T \right )\to \mathbb{R}^{2}$ with generalised Neumann boundary conditions inside cones, satisfying three variants of the…
We investigate the motion of a family of closed curves evolving according to the geometric evolution law on a given two dimensional manifold which is embedded or immersed in the three-dimensional Euclidean space. We derive a system of…
We investigate fluid transport in random velocity fields with unsteady drift. First, we propose to quantify fluid transport between flow regimes of different characteristic motion, by escape probability and mean residence time. We then…
We study closed, embedded hypersurfaces in Euclidean space evolving by fully nonlinear curvature flows, whose speed is given by a symmetric, monotone increasing, $1$-homogeneous, positive underlying speed function $F$ composed with a…
Incompressible flows of an ideal two-dimensional fluid on a closed orientable surface of positive genus are considered. Linear stability of harmonic, i.e. irrotational and incompressible, solutions to the Euler equations is shown using the…
We consider the problem of a one dimensional elastic filament immersed in a two dimensional steady Stokes fluid. Immersed boundary problems in which a thin elastic structure interacts with a surrounding fluid are prevalent in science and…
We study well-posedness and asymptotic dynamics of a coupled system consisting of linearized 3D Navier--Stokes equations in a bounded domain and a classical (nonlinear) full von Karman shallow shell equations that accounts for both…
Consider the scattering of an acoustic plane wave by a bounded elastic obstacle which is immersed in an open space filled with a homogeneous medium. This paper concerns the mathematical analysis of the coupled two- and three-dimensional…
This paper deals with flow-induced shape transitions of elastic capsules. The state of the art concerning both theory and experiments is briefly reviewed starting with dynamically induced small deformation of initially spherical capsules…
We report experiments on the deformation and transport of an elastic fiber in a viscous cellular flow, namely a lattice of counter-rotative vortices. We show that the fiber can buckle when approaching a stagnation point. By tuning either…
