Out-of-equilibrium dynamics in driven and active magnetic colloids

Massana-Cid, Helena (Date of defense: 2019-12-11)

In this thesis we investigate the structure formation and the out-of-equilibrium dynamics of driven and active magnetic colloids. The interactions in our system were tuned in situ by using external fields, with the aim of ...

Prospects of microwave spectrometry for vascular stent monitoring. Towards a non-invasive and non-ionizing follow-up alternative

Arauz-Garofalo, Gianluca (Date of defense: 2017-06-13)

Throughout this thesis we have assessed the prospects of microwave spectrometry (MWS) as a non-ionizing non-invasive monitoring alternative for stented patients in a very early proof-of-concept stage. In Chapter 1 we have ...

Revealing DNA dynamics from atomistic to genomic level by multiscale computational approaches

Walther, Jürgen (Date of defense: 2019-10-04)

The study of DNA from atomistic to mesoscopic level and connecting different resolution levels constitutes a major challenge since the new millennium. In the early 2000s, experiments could resolve for the first time the ...

Spatio-temporal dynamics of intercellular Notch signaling: a modeling approach

Luna Escalante, Juan Camilo (Date of defense: 2016-10-14)

Intercellular signalling is a mechanism by which cells communicate and mediate coordinated responses. In this Thesis we perform theoretical and computational analyses to evaluate spatio-temporal organizations that can arise ...

Statistical thermodynamics of long-range interacting systems and near-field thermal radiation

Latella, Ivan (Date of defense: 2016-06-27)

Two main topics are examined in this thesis: classical systems with long-range interactions and thermal radiation in the near-field regime. In the first part, we present a thermodynamic approach describing systems with ...
