Moulding hydrodynamic 2D-crystals upon parametric Faraday waves in shear-functionalized water surfaces
Mikheil Kharbedia, Niccolò Caselli, Horacio López-Menéndez +2
Faraday waves (FWs), or surface waves oscillating at half of the natural frequency when a liquid is vertically vibrated, are archetypes of ordering transitions on liquid surfaces.…
A mesoscopic theory to describe the flexibility regulation in F-actin networks: An approach of phase transitions with nonlinear elasticity
Horacio Lopez-Menendez
The synthetic actin network arouses great interest as bio-material due to its soft and wet nature that mimics many biological scaffolding structures. Inside the cell, the actin net…
A theory to describe emergent properties of composite F-actin and vimentin networks
Horacio Lopez-Menendez, Libardo Gonzalez-Torres
The synthetic biopolymeric gels demand a great interest as bio-materials to mimic many biological scaffolding structures, which can contribute to a better understanding of the cyto…
Unjamming and nematic flocks in endothelial monolayers during angiogenesis : theoretical and experimental analysis
Horacio Lopez-Menendez, Joseph D'Alessandro
Angiogenesis is the complex process by which new blood vessels develop from an existing vasculature in order to supply nutrients and/or metabolites to tissues, playing a fundamenta…
