Convergent adaptive finite element methods for photonic crystal applications (2010)
Journal Article
Giani, S. Convergent adaptive finite element methods for photonic crystal applications. Manuscript submitted for publication

We prove the convergence of an adaptive finite element method for computing the band structure of 2D periodic photonic crystals with or without compact defects in both the TM and TE polarization cases. These eigenvalue problems involve non-coerci... Read More about Convergent adaptive finite element methods for photonic crystal applications.

On the combinatorial classification of toric log del Pezzo surfaces (2010)
Journal Article
Kasprzyk, A. M., Kreuzer, M., & Nill, B. (2010). On the combinatorial classification of toric log del Pezzo surfaces. LMS Journal of Computation and Mathematics, 13, https://doi.org/10.1112/S1461157008000387

Toric log del Pezzo surfaces correspond to convex lattice polygons containing the origin in their interior and having only primitive vertices. An upper bound on the volume and on the number of boundary lattice points of these polygons is derived in t... Read More about On the combinatorial classification of toric log del Pezzo surfaces.

Calcium window currents, periodic forcing and chaos: understanding single neuron response with a discontinuous one-dimensional map (2010)
Journal Article
Laudanski, J., Sumner, C., & Coombes, S. (2010). Calcium window currents, periodic forcing and chaos: understanding single neuron response with a discontinuous one-dimensional map. Physical Review E, 82(1), Article e011924. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevE.82.011924

Thalamocortical (TC) neurones are known to express the low-voltage activated, inactivating Ca2+ current IT. The triggering of this current underlies the generation of low threshold Ca2+ potentials that may evoke single or bursts of action potentials....

A multiphase model for tissue construct growth in a perfusion bioreactor (2010)
Journal Article
O'Dea, R. D., Waters, S. L., & Byrne, H. M. (2010). A multiphase model for tissue construct growth in a perfusion bioreactor. Mathematical Medicine and Biology, 27(2), https://doi.org/10.1093/imammb/dqp003

The growth of a cell population within a rigid porous scaffold in a perfusion bioreactor is studied, using a three phase continuum model of the type presented by Lemon et al. (2006, Multiphase modelling of tissue growth using the theory of mixtures.... Read More about A multiphase model for tissue construct growth in a perfusion bioreactor.

Elastic symmetries of defective crystals (2010)
Journal Article
Parry, G. P. (2010). Elastic symmetries of defective crystals. Journal of Elasticity, 101(1), https://doi.org/10.1007/s10659-010-9254-9

I construct discrete and continuous crystal structures that are compatible with a given choice of dislocation density tensor, and (following Mal’cev) provide a canonical form for these discrete structures. The symmetries of the discrete structures ex... Read More about Elastic symmetries of defective crystals.

Understanding cardiac alternans: a piecewise linear modeling framework (2010)
Journal Article
Thul, R., & Coombes, S. (2010). Understanding cardiac alternans: a piecewise linear modeling framework. Chaos, 20, https://doi.org/10.1063/1.3518362

Cardiac alternans is a beat-to-beat alternation in action potential duration (APD) and intracellular calcium (Ca²⁺) cycling seen in cardiac myocytes under rapid pacing that is believed to be a precursor to fibrillation. The cellular mechanisms of the... Read More about Understanding cardiac alternans: a piecewise linear modeling framework.
