Dynamics of bacterial aggregates in microflows
Ana Carpio, Baldvin Einarsson, David R. Espeso
Biofilms are bacterial aggregates that grow on moist surfaces. Thin homogeneous biofilms naturally formed on the walls of conducts may serve as biosensors, providing information on…
Incorporating Cellular Stochasticity in Solid--Fluid Mixture Biofilm Models
Ana Carpio, Elena Cebrian
The dynamics of cellular aggregates is driven by the interplay of mechanochemical processes and cellular activity. Although deterministic models may capture mechanical features, lo…
Biofilms as poroelastic materials
Ana Carpio, Elena Cebrian, Perfecto Vidal
Biofilms are bacterial aggregates encased in a self-produced polymeric matrix which attach to moist surfaces and are extremely resistant to chemicals and antibiotics. Recent experi…
Biofilm mechanics and patterns
Ana Carpio, Elena Cebrian, David R. Espeso +1
From multicellular tissues to bacterial colonies, three dimensional cellular structures arise through the interaction of cellular activities and mechanical forces. Simple bacterial…
