Small equatorial deformation of homogeneous spherical fluid vesicles
Andrés Solís-Cuevas, Pablo Vázquez-Montejo
We examine the reaction of a homogeneous spherical fluid vesicle to the force exerted by a rigid circular ring located at its equator in the linear regime. We solve analytically th…
Equatorial deformation of homogeneous spherical fluid vesicles by a rigid ring
Pablo Vázquez-Montejo, Bojan Božič, Jemal Guven
We examine the deformation of homogeneous spherical fluid vesicles along their equator by a circular rigid ring. We consider deformations preserving the axial and equatorial mirror…
First integrals for elastic curves: twisting instabilities of helices
Didier A. Solis, Pablo Vázquez-Montejo
We put forward a variational framework suitable for the study of curves whose energies depend on their bend and twist degrees of freedom. By employing the material curvatures to de…
Isometric bending requires local constraints on free edges
Jemal Guven, Martin Michael Müller, Pablo Vázquez-Montejo
While the shape equations describing the equilibrium of an unstretchable thin sheet that is free to bend are known, the boundary conditions that supplement these equations on free…
Flexible paramagnetic membranes in fast precessing fields
Pablo Vázquez-Montejo, Mónica Olvera de la Cruz
Elastic membranes composed of paramagnetic beads offer the possibility of assembling versatile actuators operated autonomously by external magnetic fields. Here we develop a theore…
