Mechanical Evidence of the impossibility of directed motion of Trypanosoma cruzi towards preferred organs in the Human Body, a simulation 2D model within a laminar flow

Alberto-Mario Castillo, Gabriel Villalobos

The movement of the infective form of the T. Cruzi parasite within the human blood is not completely understood. Video microscopy observations confirm forward motility of the proto…

Passenger Network Ridership Model Through a BRT System, the case of TransMilenio in Bogotá

Gabriel Villalobos, Juan D. Garcia-Arteaga, Arturo Argüelles

We present a ridership model of individual trajectories of users within a public transport network for which there are several different routes between origin and destiny and for w…

A computational model relating the self-assembly in a fluid of lath like particles with its rheology and gelation

Gabriel Villalobos

We study the self-assembly leading to a gel transition occurring in a numerical model of a solution of slender, colloidal sized particles, called laths, who interact mostly in the…

Acoustic emission signals resulting from the drying induced fractures of Phyllostachys Pubescens bamboo, Evidence of scale free phenomena

Gabriel Villalobos

I have performed experimental measurements of acoustic emission signals resulting from the drying process of Phyllostachys Pubescens bamboo. The emphasis was on identifying individ…

Effect of disorder on temporal fluctuations in drying induced cracking

Gabriel Villalobos, Ferenc Kun, José D. Muñoz

We investigate by means of computer simulations the effect of structural disorder on the statistics of cracking for a thin layer of material under uniform and isotropic drying. The…

Size distribution and waiting times for the avalanches of the Cell Network Model of Fracture

Gabriel Villalobos, Ferenc Kun, Dorian L. Linero +1

The Cell Network Model is a fracture model recently introduced that resembles the microscopical structure and drying process of the parenchymatous tissue of the Bamboo Guadua angus…

A statistical model of fracture for a 2D hexagonal mesh: the Cell Network Model of Fracture for the bamboo Guadua angustifolia

G. Villalobos, D. L. Linero, J. D. Munoz

A 2D, hexagonal in geometry, statistical model of fracture is proposed. The model is based on the drying fracture process of the bamboo Guadua angustifolia. A network of flexible c…
