Vesicles with internal active filaments: self-organized propulsion controls shape, motility, and dynamical response

Clara Abaurrea-Velasco, Thorsten Auth, Gerhard Gompper

Self-propulsion and navigation due to the sensing of environmental conditions - such as durotaxis and chemotaxis - are remarkable properties of biological cells that cannot be repr…

How antagonistic salts cause nematic ordering and behave like diblock copolymers

David Jung, Nicolas Rivas, Jens Harting

We present simulation results and an explanatory theory on how antagonistic salts affect the spinodal decomposition of binary fluid mixtures. We find that spinodal decomposition is…

Effects of particle stiffness on the extensional rheology of model rod-like nanoparticle suspensions

Christian Lang, Jan Hendricks, Zhenkun Zhang +5

The linear and nonlinear rheological behavior of two rod-like particle suspensions as a function of concentration is studied using small amplitude oscillatory shear, steady shear a…

A quest for shear banding in ideal and non ideal colloidal rods

Christian Lang, Lionel Porcar, Hartmut Kriegs +1

We assess the possibility of shear banding of semidilute rod-like colloidal suspensions under steady shear ow very close to the isotropic-nematic spinodal, using a combination of r…

Influence of Side Chain Isomerism on the Rigidity of Poly(3-alkylthiophenes) in Solutions Revealed by Neutron Scattering

William D. Hong, Christopher N. Lam, Yangyang Wang +5

Using small angle neutron scattering, we conducted a detailed structural study of poly(3-alkylthiophenes) dispersed in deuterated dicholorbenzene. The focus was placed on addressin…

Microfluidic pump driven by anisotropic phoresis

Zihan Tan, Mingcheng Yang, Marisol Ripoll

Fluid flow along microchannels can be induced by keeping opposite walls at different temperatures, and placing elongated tilted pillars inside the channel. The driving force for th…
