Microfluidic Flow of Cholesteric Liquid Crystals
Oliver Wiese, Davide Marenduzzo, Oliver Henrich
We explore the rheology and flow-induced morphological changes of cholesteric liquid crystal patterns subject to Poiseuille flow within a slab geometry, and under different anchori…
Shear dynamics of an inverted nematic emulsion
A. Tiribocchi, M. Da Re, D. Marenduzzo +1
Here we study theoretically the dynamics of a 2D and a 3D isotropic droplet in a nematic liquid crystal under a shear flow. We find a large repertoire of possible nonequilibrium st…
Pattern formation in polymerising actin flocks: spirals, spots and waves without nonlinear chemistry
Thomas Le Goff, Benno Liebchen, Davide Marenduzzo
We propose a model solely based on actin treadmilling and polymerisation which describes many characteristic states of actin wave formation: spots, spirals and travelling waves. In…
A Single Nucleotide Resolution Model for Large-Scale Simulations of Double Stranded DNA
Y. A. G. Fosado, D. Michieletto, J. Allan +3
The computational modelling of DNA is becoming crucial in light of new advances in DNA nanotechnology, single-molecule experiments and in vivo DNA tampering. Here we present a meso…
A Polymer Model with Epigenetic Recolouring Reveals a Pathway for the de novo Establishment and 3D Organisation of Chromatin Domains
Davide Michieletto, Enzo Orlandini, Davide Marenduzzo
One of the most important problems in development is how epigenetic domains can be first established, and then maintained, within cells. To address this question, we propose a fram…
Pattern Formation in Chemically Interacting Active Rotors with Self-Propulsion
Benno Liebchen, Michael E. Cates, Davide Marenduzzo
We demonstrate that active rotations in chemically signalling particles, such as autochemotactic {\it E. coli} close to walls, create a route for pattern formation based on a nonli…
