Thermal convection in a higher velocity gradient and higher temperature gradient fluid
Giulia Giantesio, Alberto Girelli, Chiara Lonati +3
We analyse a model for thermal convection in a class of generalized Navier-Stokes equations containing fourth order spatial derivatives of the velocity and of the temperature. The…
A comparison between active strain and active stress in transversely isotropic hyperelastic materials
Giulia Giantesio, Alessandro Musesti, Davide Riccobelli
Active materials are media for which deformations can occur in absence of loads, given an external stimulus. Two approaches to the modeling of such materials are mainly used in lit…
A continuum model of skeletal muscle tissue with loss of activation
Giulia Giantesio, Alessandro Musesti
We present a continuum model for the mechanical behavior of the skeletal muscle tissue when its functionality is reduced due to aging. The loss of ability of activating is typical…
Strain-dependent internal parameters in hyperelastic biological materials
Giulia Giantesio, Alessandro Musesti
The behavior of hyperelastic energies depending on an internal parameter, which is a function of the deformation gradient, is discussed. As an example, the analysis of two models w…
