  • Problems of Shape and Information in Multiscale Modeling of Transport Phenomena

    Creator:
    Ostvar, Sassan
    Abstract:
    This work is a compilation of problems that deal with multiscale analysis of transport phenomena in environmental systems. A common feature among the problems studied here is the presence of non-negligible microscale structure in various forms. Each problem is approached from the perspective that a macroscopic observable encodes aspects of...

  • A multiscale approach to bacterial adhesion

    Creator:
    Ostvar, Sassan
    Abstract:
    This work is an attempt to develop a simple physical description for the initial interactions between a bacterial cell and a substrate surface. This is done by adopting a view that regards bacterial surface biomolecules not as secondary and add-on contributors to the potential energy function that characterizes the overall...
