Séminaire PMMH - Thomas Salez (LOMA, Bordeaux)
Brownian motion in confinement
Brownian motion near interfaces is a canonical situation, encountered from fundamental biophysics to nanoscale engineering. Using a combination of experimental, theoretical and numerical methods, we study the thermally-induced random tridimensional trajectories of individual microparticles, within salty aqueous solutions, in the vicinity of rigid walls, and in the presence of surface charges. We construct the time-dependent position and displacement probability density functions, and study the non-Gaussian character of the latter which is a direct signature of the hindered mobility near the wall. Furthermore, we implement a robust multifitting method, allowing for the thermal-noise-limited inference of diffusion coefficients spatially resolved at the nanoscale, equilibrium potentials, and forces at the femtonewton resolution. Finally, we discuss more complex situations, such as the ones involving soft boundaries, external flows or active microswimmers.

Séminaire PMMH - Vince Craig, Australian National University, Australia
Vendredi 11 juillet de 11h00 à 12h00 - Salle réunion PMMH 1
Underscreening Stable colloidal systems at very high electrolyte concentrations
In colloidal systems the range and strength of electrostatic interactions has a profound effect on a range of properties including the stability of colloidal dispersions and the phase behaviour of surfactant and polymer systems. The Debye length has proven to be a very effective measure of the range of (…) -
Séminaire PMMH - Salvatore Federico (University of Calgary, Canada)
Vendredi 4 juillet de 11h00 à 12h00 - Salle réunion PMMH 1
Continuum Mechanics of Hydrated Fibre-Reinforced Soft Tissues
Biological tissues can be represented as bi-phasic continua, with a porous solid phase saturated by an interstitial fluid and reinforced by collagen fibers. This lecture will give an overview of the modelling techniques for fibre-reinforced porous composite materials with statistical orientation of the fibers. Both (…) -

REPROGRAMMABLE HARDWARE FOR DATA PROCESSING AT THE EDGE : A NEW COMPUTING PARADIGM BASED ON NEUROMORPHIC SYSTEMS
The brain's ability to perform efficient and fault-tolerant data processing is strongly related with its peculiar interconnected adaptive architecture, based on redundant neural circuits interacting at different scales. By emulating the brain's processing and learning mechanisms, computing technologies strive to (…) -

Séminaire PMMH – Vincent Bertin (IUSTI, U. Aix-Marseille)
Vendredi 6 juin de 11h00 à 12h00 - Salle réunion PMMH 1
The audience is composed of people with rather heterogeneous backgrounds including specialists in solids, fluids, granular flows, statistical physics... so the idea is to keep your talk understandable by people not necessarily working in your field... The seminar time slot runs from 11am to noon so the best is to make the talk last around 45 minutes to leave some time for discussion.
