Comportamiento asintótico de las ecuaciones de la termoelasticidad generalizada.
In this paper it is first shown that the linear evolution equations for a generalized thermoelastic solid generate a C0 semigroup. Next an analysis of the long time evolution behaviour yields the some results known for classical thermoelasticity: generically, the natural state is asymptotically stable.
Computation of the drag force on a sphere close to a wall
We consider the effect of surface roughness on solid-solid contact in a Stokes flow. Various models for the roughness are considered, and a unified methodology is given to derive the corresponding asymptotics of the drag force in the close-contact limit. In this way, we recover and clarify the various expressions that can be found in previous studies.

Controllability of 3D low Reynolds number swimmers
In this article, we consider a swimmer (i.e. a self-deformable body) immersed in a fluid, the flow of which is governed by the stationary Stokes equations. This model is relevant for studying the locomotion of microorganisms or micro robots for which the inertia effects can be neglected. Our first main contribution is to prove that any such microswimmer has the ability to track, by performing a sequence of shape changes, any given trajectory in the fluid. We show that, in addition, this can be done...
Controllability of a simplified model of fluid-structure interaction
This article aims at studying the controllability of a simplified fluid structure interaction model derived and developed in [C. Conca, J. Planchard and M. Vanninathan, RAM: Res. Appl. Math. John Wiley & Sons Ltd., Chichester (1995); J.-P. Raymond and M. Vanninathan, ESAIM: COCV 11 (2005) 180–203; M. Tucsnak and M. Vanninathan, Systems Control Lett. 58 (2009) 547–552]. This interaction is modeled by a wave equation surrounding a harmonic oscillator. Our main result states that, in the radially...
Convergence of a Lagrange-Galerkin method for a fluid-rigid body system in ALE formulation
We propose a numerical scheme to compute the motion of a two-dimensional rigid body in a viscous fluid. Our method combines the method of characteristics with a finite element approximation to solve an ALE formulation of the problem. We derive error estimates implying the convergence of the scheme.
