A universal phase-plane model for in vivo protein aggregation
Matthew W. Cotton, Alain Goriely, David Klenerman +1
Neurodegenerative diseases are driven by the accumulation of protein aggregates in the brain of affected individuals. The aggregation behaviour in vitro is well understood and driv…
Generalized invariants meet constitutive neural networks: A novel framework for hyperelastic materials
Denisa Martonová, Alain Goriely, Ellen Kuhl
The major challenge in determining a hyperelastic model for a given material is the choice of invariants and the selection how the strain energy function depends functionally on th…
A multiscale theory for network advection-reaction-diffusion
Hadrien Oliveri, Emilia Cozzolino, Alain Goriely
Mathematical network models are extremely useful to capture complex propagation processes between different regions (nodes), for example the spread of an infectious agent between d…
The Darboux Classification of Curl Forces
Arash Yavari, Alain Goriely
We study particle dynamics under curl forces. These forces are a class of non-conservative, non-dissipative, position-dependent forces that cannot be expressed as gradient of a pot…
The multiscale mechanics of axon durotaxis
Christoforos Kassianides, Alain Goriely, Hadrien Oliveri
During neurodevelopment, neuronal axons navigate through the extracellular environment, guided by various cues to establish connections with distant target cells. Among other facto…
A Mechanical Model for the Failure of Reconstructive Breast Implant Surgery Due to Capsular Contracture
Yuqi Xiao, Leah Edelstein-Keshet, Alain Goriely +1
Capsular contracture is a pathological response to implant-based reconstructive breast surgery, where the ``capsule'' (tissue surrounding an implant) painfully thickens, contracts…
Decomposing force fields as flows on graphs reconstructed from stochastic trajectories
Ramón Nartallo-Kaluarachchi, Paul Expert, David Beers +4
Disentangling irreversible and reversible forces from random fluctuations is a challenging problem in the analysis of stochastic trajectories measured from real-world dynamical sys…
A network aggregation model for the dynamics and treatment of neurodegenerative diseases at the brain scale
Georgia S. Brennan, Alain Goriely
Neurodegenerative diseases are associated with the assembly of specific proteins into oligomers and fibrillar aggregates. At the brain scale, these protein assemblies can diffuse t…
Minimal activation with maximal reach: Reachability clouds of bio-inspired slender manipulators
Bartosz Kaczmarski, Derek E. Moulton, Alain Goriely +1
In the field of soft robotics, flexibility, adaptability, and functionality define a new era of robotic systems that can safely deform, reach, and grasp. To optimize the design of…
Minimal design of the elephant trunk as an active filament
Bartosz Kaczmarski, Sophie Leanza, Renee Zhao +3
One of the key problems in active materials is the control of shape through actuation. A fascinating example of such control is the elephant trunk, a long, muscular, and extremely…
Soft cells and the geometry of seashells
Gábor Domokos, Alain Goriely, Ákos G. Horváth +1
A central problem of geometry is the tiling of space with simple structures. The classical solutions, such as triangles, squares, and hexagons in the plane and cubes and other poly…
Broken detailed balance and entropy production in directed networks
Ramón Nartallo-Kaluarachchi, Malbor Asllani, Gustavo Deco +3
The structure of a complex network plays a crucial role in determining its dynamical properties. In this work, we show that the the degree to which a network is directed and hierar…
Active shape control by plants in dynamic environments
Hadrien Oliveri, Derek E. Moulton, Heather A. Harrington +1
Plants are a paradigm for active shape control in response to stimuli. For instance, it is well-known that a tilted plant will eventually straighten vertically, demonstrating the i…
