Hierarchical assembly is more robust than egalitarian assembly in synthetic capsids
Wei-Shao Wei, Anthony Trubiano, Christian Sigl +4
Self-assembly of complex and functional materials remains a grand challenge in soft material science. Efficient assembly depends on a delicate balance between thermodynamic and kin…
Morphology Formation in Binary Mixtures upon Gradual Destabilisation
Charley Schaefer, Stefan Paquay, Tom C. B. McLeish
Spontaneous liquid-liquid phase separation is commonly understood in terms of phenomenological mean-field theories. These theories correctly predict the structural features of the…
Self-organisation of semi-flexible rod-like particles
Bart de Braaf, Mariana Oshima Menegon, Stefan Paquay +1
We report on a comprehensive computer simulation study of the liquid-crystal phase behaviour of purely repulsive, semi-flexible rod-like particles. For the four aspect ratios we co…
Impact of Interaction Range and Curvature on Crystal Growth of Particles Confined to Spherical Surfaces
Stefan Paquay, Gert-Jan Both, Paul van der Schoot
When colloidal particles form a crystal phase on a spherical template, their packing is governed by the effective interaction between them and the elastic strain of bending the gro…
Energetically favoured defects in dense packings of particles on spherical surfaces
Stefan Paquay, Halim Kusumaatmaja, David J. Wales +2
The dense packing of interacting particles on spheres has proved to be a useful model for virus capsids and colloidosomes. Indeed, icosahedral symmetry observed in virus capsids co…
A method for molecular dynamics on curved surfaces
Stefan Paquay, Remy Kusters
Dynamics simulations of constrained particles can greatly aid in understanding the temporal and spatial evolution of biological processes such as lateral transport along membranes…
Confinement without boundaries: Anisotropic diffusion on the surface of a cylinder
Remy Kusters, Stefan Paquay, Cornelis Storm
Densely packed systems of thermal particles in curved geometries are frequently encountered in biological and microfluidic systems. In 2D systems, at sufficiently high surface cove…
