Depletion effects and loop formation in self-avoiding polymers
N. M. Toan, D. Marenduzzo, P. R. Cook +1
Langevin dynamics is employed to study the looping kinetics of self-avoiding polymers both in ideal and crowded solutions. A rich kinetics results from the competition of two crowd…
Stall, spiculate or runaway - the fate of fibers growing towards fluctuating membranes
D. R. Daniels, D. Marenduzzo, M. S. Turner
We solve the dynamic equations of motion for a growing semi-flexible polymer, or fiber, approaching a fluctuating membrane at an angle. At late times we find three different regime…
Polymer packaging and ejection in viral capsids: shape matters
I. Ali, D. Marenduzzo, J. M. Yeomans
We use a mesoscale simulation approach to explore the impact of different capsid geometries on the packaging and ejection dynamics of polymers of different flexibility. We find tha…
Rheology of cholesteric blue phases
A. Dupuis, D. Marenduzzo, E. Orlandini +1
Blue phases of cholesteric liquid crystals offer a spectacular example of naturally occurring disclination line networks. Here we numerically solve the hydrodynamic equations of mo…
