Vesicle model with bending energy revisited
The equations governing the conditions of mechanical equilibrium in fluid membranes subject to bending are revisited thanks to the principle of virtual work. The note proposes systematic tools to obtain the shape equation and the line condition instead of Christoffel symbols and the complex calculations they entail. The method seems adequate to investigate all problems involving surface energies.
متن کاملSimulating the deformation of vesicle membranes under elastic bending energy in three dimensions
In this paper, we study the three-dimensional deformation of a vesicle membrane under the elastic bending energy, with prescribed bulk volume and surface area. Both static and dynamic deformations are considered. A newly developed energetic variational formulation is employed to give an effective Eulerian description. Efficient time and spatial discretizations are considered and implemented. Nu...
متن کاملAdaptive Finite Element Method for a Phase Field Bending Elasticity Model of Vesicle Membrane Deformations
In this paper, a three-dimensional adaptive finite element method is developed for a variational phase field bending elasticity model of vesicle membrane deformations. Using a mixed finite element formulation, residual type a posteriori error estimates are derived for the associated nonlinear system of equations and, they are used to introduce the mesh refinement and coarsening. The resulting m...
متن کاملA phase field approach in the numerical study of the elastic bending energy for vesicle membranes q
In this paper, we compute the equilibrium configurations of a vesicle membrane under elastic bending energy, with prescribed volume and surface area. A variational phase field method is developed for such a problem. Discrete finite difference approximations and numerical simulations are carried out in the axial symmetrical cases. Different energetic bifurcation phenomena are discussed. 2004 Els...
متن کاملGravastar Energy Conditions Revisited
We consider the gravastar model where the vacuum phase transition between the de Sitter interior and the Schwarzschild or Schwarzschild–de Sitter exterior geometries takes place at a single spherical δ-shell. We derive sharp analytic bounds on the surface compactness (2m/r) that follow from the requirement that the dominant energy condition (DEC) holds at the shell. In the case of Schwarzschild...
