Shear-induced transitions and instabilities in surfactant wormlike micelles

Sandra Lerouge, Jean-Francois Berret

In this review, we report recent developments on the shear-induced transitions and instabilities found in surfactant wormlike micelles. The survey focuses on the non-linear shear r…

Taylor-like vortices in the shear-banding flow of giant micelles

M. A. Fardin, B. Lasne, O. Cardoso +4

Using flow visualizations in Couette geometry, we demonstrate the existence of Taylor-like vortices in the shear-banding flow of a giant micelles system. We show that vortices stac…

Actin based propulsion: Intriguing interplay between material properties and growth processes

Karin John, Denis Caillerie, Philippe Peyla +3

Eukaryotic cells and intracellular pathogens such as bacteria or viruses utilize the actin polymerization machinery to propel themselves forward. Thereby, the onset of motion and c…

Statics and inertial dynamics of a ruck in a rug

Dominic Vella, Arezki Boudaoud, Mokhtar Adda-Bedia

We consider the familiar problem of a bump, or ruck, in a rug. Under lateral compression, a rug bends out of the plane forming a ruck -- a localized region in which it is no longer…

Suppression of Aggregation in Natural-Semiflexible/Flexible Polyanion Mixtures, and Direct Check of the OSF Model using SANS

Fabien Bonnet, Ralph Schweins, François Boué +1

Aggregation and other interactions are suppressed for a biological semiflexible polyelectrolyte, hyaluronan (HA), when it is embedded in a mixture with another negatively charged a…
