Rigidity transitions in zero-temperature polygons

M. C. Gandikota, Amanda Parker, J. M. Schwarz

We study geometrical clues of a rigidity transition due to the emergence of a system-spanning state of self stress in under-constrained systems of individual polygons and spring ne…

Thermal Fluctuations of Singular Bar-Joint Mechanisms

Manu Mannattil, J. M. Schwarz, Christian D. Santangelo

A bar-joint mechanism is a deformable assembly of freely rotating joints connected by stiff bars. Here we develop a formalism to study the equilibration of common bar-joint mechani…

Propagating irreversibility fronts in cyclically-sheared suspensions

Jikai Wang, J. M. Schwarz, Joseph D. Paulsen

The interface separating a liquid from its vapor phase is diffuse: the composition varies continuously from one phase to the other over a finite length. Recent experiments on dynam…

Large-scale cortex-core structure formation in brain organoids

Ahmad Borzou, J. M. Schwarz

Brain organoids recapitulate a number of brain properties, including neuronal diversity. However, do they recapitulate brain structure? Using a hydrodynamic description for cell nu…

A Data-Driven Statistical Description for the Hydrodynamics of Active Matter

Ahmad Borzou, Alison E. Patteson, J. M. Schwarz

Modeling living systems at the collective scale can be very challenging because the individual constituents can themselves be complex and the respective interactions between the co…

Geometric signatures of tissue surface tension in a three-dimensional model of confluent tissue

Preeti Sahu, J. M. Schwarz, M. Lisa Manning

In dense biological tissues, cell types performing different roles remain segregated by maintaining sharp interfaces. To better understand the mechanisms for such sharp compartment…

Buckling without bending morphogenesis: Nonlinearities, spatial confinement, and branching hierarchies

M. C. Gandikota, J. M. Schwarz

During morphogenesis, a featureless convex cerebellum develops folds. As it does so, the cortex thickness is thinnest at the crest (gyri) and thickest at the trough (sulci) of the…

Sponge-like rigid structures in frictional granular packings

Kuang Liu, Jonathan E. Kollmer, Karen E. Daniels +2

We show how rigidity emerges in experiments of sheared frictional granular materials by using generalizations of two methods for identifying rigid structures. Both approaches, the…
