Mathematical and computational modeling of the active mechanics of multicellular systems: from cell–cell adhesion to epithelial reshaping by Pradeep Kumar Bal

Pradeep Kumar Bal submitted his PhD thesis Mathematical and computational modeling of the active mechanics of multicellular systems: from cell–cell adhesion to epithelial reshaping, supervised by Marino Arroyo at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (September 2025). He is currently expanding his doctoral research as a postdoctoral researcher with Prof. Marino Arroyo. This thesis develops theoretical […]

Data assimilation for real-time dynamic prediction of wind-induced forces in vehicle platooning by Rafel Perelló i Ribas

Rafel Perelló i Ribas submitted his PhD thesis Data assimilation for real-time dynamic prediction of wind-induced forces in vehicle platooning, supervised by Antonio Huerta and Sergio Zlotnik at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (November 2025). Nowadays, in the field of automotive aerodynamics, there is a big concern on concepts such as safety and energy efficiency.

Oscillatory motions, parabolic orbits and collision orbits in the planar circular restricted three-body problem by José Lamas Rodríguez

José Lamas Rodríguez submitted his PhD thesis Oscillatory motions, parabolic orbits and collision orbits in the planar circular restricted three-body problem, supervised by Marcel Guàrdia Munárriz and Tere M-Seara Alonso at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (April 2025). Celestial mechanics is a classical meeting point between physics and mathematics. Its starting point is deceptively simple:

Libration point orbits: a brief journey through fundamental dynamics and applications by Josep Masdemont

Josep Masdemont (DMAT, IMTech) The collinear equilibrium points of the Restricted Three-Body Problem (RTBP) were first described by the Swiss mathematician Leonhard Euler in the 18th century. The foundational understanding of libration point orbits has its roots in the pioneering work on the continuation of periodic orbits by Hénon and others laid the groundwork for

Geometry and physics with geometric algebra, Geometric Mechanics, Vol. 2, No. 3 (2025), 337–383. by Sebastià Xambó

Geometric Mechanics, Vol. 2, No. 3 (2025), 337–383. Sebastià Xambó (DMAT) This work is dedicated to the memory of Miguel Carlos Muñoz Lecanda (MCML) (1946-2023), who was a Full Professor at UPC. Broadly speaking, his scientific interests were focused on the interactions between mathematics (mainly differential geometry) and physics (geometric mechanics, classical field theory), but
