Disorder-induced persistent random motion and trapping of microswimmers
Mirko Residori, Sebastian Aland, Christina Kurzthaler
Microorganisms ofter move in confined, disordered environments, where hydrodynamic couplings can modify their transport behavior. Using extensive finite-element simulations, we inv…
Hydrodynamic liquid crystal models for lipid bilayers
Ingo Nitschke, Jan Magnus Sischka, Axel Voigt
Coarse-grained continuous descriptions for lipid bilayers are typically based on minimizing the Helfrich energy. Such models consider the fluid properties of these structures only…
Kinetic theory of emulsions with matter supply
Jacqueline Janssen, Frank Jülicher, Christoph A. Weber
In this work, we propose a theory for the kinetics of emulsions in which a continuous supply of matter feeds droplet growth. We consider cases where growth is either limited by bul…
Elasticity and plasticity of epithelial gap closure
Maryam Setoudeh, Pierre A. Haas
Epiboly, during which a tissue closes around the surface of the egg, pervades animal development. This epithelial gap closure involves cell intercalations at the edge of the gap. H…
Control of lumen morphology by lateral and basal cell surfaces
Chandraniva Guha Ray, Markus Mukenhirn, Alf Honigmann +1
Across development, the morphology of fluid-filled lumina enclosed by epithelial tissues arises from an interplay of lumen pressure, mechanics of the cell cortex, and cell-cell adh…
Geometry of T1 transitions in epithelia
Pierre A. Haas
The flows of tissues of epithelial cells often involve T1 transitions. These neighbour exchanges are irreversible rearrangements crossing an energy barrier. Here, by an exact geome…
