Dynamic structure factor of a stiff polymer in a glassy solution

J. Glaser, O. Hallatschek, K. Kroy

We provide a comprehensive overview of the current theoretical understanding of the dynamic structure factor of stiff polymers in semidilute solution based on the wormlike chain (W…

Highly Anisotropic Vorticity Aligned Structures in a Shear Thickening Attractive Colloidal System

Chinedum O. Osuji, David A. Weitz

Vorticity aligned cylindrical flocs of carbon black particles are coincident with a primary shear thickening transition in steady flow and also appear as transient structures in th…

Motor driven microtubule shape fluctuations - force from within the lattice

Herve Mohrbach, Igor M. Kulic

We develop a general theory of microtubule (MT) deformations by molecular motors generating internal force doublets within the MT lattice. We describe two basic internal excitation…

DNA unzipping phase diagram calculated via replica theory

C. Brian Roland, Kristi Adamson Hatch, Mara Prentiss +1

We show how single-molecule unzipping experiments can provide strong evidence that the zero-force melting transition of long molecules of natural dsDNA should be classified as a ph…

Visualizing the strain field in semiflexible polymer networks: strain fluctuations and nonlinear rheology of F-actin gels

J. Liu, G. H. Koenderink, K. E. Kasza +2

We image semi-flexible polymer networks under shear at the micrometer scale. By tracking embedded probe particles, we determine the local strain field, and directly measure its uni…

Designing phoretic micro- and nano-swimmers

R. Golestanian, T. B. Liverpool, A. Ajdari

Small objects can swim by generating around them fields or gradients which in turn induce fluid motion past their surface by phoretic surface effects. We quantify for arbitrary swi…
