In this paper, we study the hydrodynamics of a vesicle doublet suspended in an external
viscous fluid flow. Vesicles in this study are modeled using the phase-field model. The …

To explore the impact of surface viscosity on coexisting fluid domains in biomembranes we
consider two-phase fluid deformable surfaces as model systems for biomembranes. Such …

We present a new diffuse interface model for the dynamics of inextensible vesicles in a
viscous fluid with inertial forces. A new feature of this work is the implementation of the local …

We analyse a generic motility model, with the motility mechanism arising by contractile
stress due to the interaction of myosin and actin. A hydrodynamic active polar gel theory is …

We numerically investigate margination of white blood cells and demonstrate the
dependency on a number of conditions including haematocrit, the deformability of the cells …

The processes of protrusion and retraction during cell movement are driven by the turnover
and reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton. Within a reaction–diffusion model which …

We consider the impact of surface hydrodynamics on the interplay between membrane
curvature and lipid composition in coarsening processes on model systems for …

The formation of membrane vesicles from a larger membrane that occurs during endocytosis
and other cell processes is typically orchestrated by curvature-inducing molecules attached …

We consider a generic model for cell motility. Even if a comprehensive understanding of cell
motility remains elusive, progress has been achieved in its modelling using a whole-cell …

The movement of ionic solutions is an essential part of biology and technology. Fluidics,
from nano-to micro-to microfluidics, is a burgeoning area of technology which is all about the …
