Field-controlled columnar and planar patterning of cholesteric colloids
Giuseppe D'Adamo, D. Marenduzzo, C. Micheletti +1
We study how dispersions of colloidal particles in a cholesteric liquid crystal behave under a time-dependent electric field. By controlling the amplitude and shape of the applied…
A minimal physical model captures the shapes of crawling cells
E. Tjhung, A. Tiribocchi, D. Marenduzzo +1
Cell motility in higher organisms (eukaryotes) is crucial to biological functions ranging from wound healing to immune response, and also implicated in diseases such as cancer. For…
Motility-induced phase separation and coarsening in active matter
Giuseppe Gonnella, Davide Marenduzzo, Antonio Suma +1
Active systems, or active matter, are self-driven systems which live, or function, far from equilibrium - a paradigmatic example which we focus on here is provided by a suspension…
