Inheritances, social classes, and wealth distribution
Pedro Patrício, Nuno A. M. Araújo
We consider a simple theoretical model to investigate the impact of inheritances on the wealth distribution. Wealth is described as a finite resource, which remains constant over d…
Wound opening in a thin incompressible viscoelastic tissue
G. M. Carvalho, N. A. M. Araújo, P. Patrício
We develop a model to investigate analytically and numerically the mechanics of wound opening made in a viscoelastic, isotropic, homogeneous, and incompressive thin tissue. This pr…
Effect of particle deformability on shear thinning in a 3D channel
Danilo P. F. Silva, Rodrigo C. V. Coelho, Margarida M. Telo da Gama +1
Soft particles suspended in fluids flowing through microchannels are often encountered in biological flows such as cells in vessels. They can deform under flow or when subject to m…
Flow through time-evolving porous media: swelling and erosion
André F. V. Matias, Rodrigo C. V. Coelho, José S. Andrade +1
The flow through a porous medium strongly depends on the boundary conditions, very often assumed to be static. Here, we consider changes in the medium due to swelling and erosion a…
Director alignment at the nematic-isotropic interface: elastic anisotropy and active anchoring
Rodrigo C. V. Coelho, Nuno A. M. Araújo, Margarida M. Telo da Gama
Activity in nematics drives interfacial flows that lead to preferential alignment that is tangential or planar for extensile systems (pushers) and perpendicular or homeotropic for…
Wetting boundary conditions for multicomponent pseudopotential lattice Boltzmann
Rodrigo C. V. Coelho, Catarina B. Moura, Margarida M. Telo da Gama +1
The implementation of boundary conditions is among the most challenging parts of modeling fluid flow through channels and complex media. Here, we show that the existing methods to…
