Bacterial swimming and accumulation on endothelial cell surfaces
Xin-Xin Xu, Yangguang Tian, Yuhe Pu +5
Flagellar-driven locomotion plays a critical role in bacterial attachment and colonization of surfaces, contributing to the risks of contamination and infection. Tremendous attempt…
Pulse-driven depinning of magnetic gap modes in ferromagnetic films
Xin-Wei Jin, Zhan-Ying Yang, Yanan Liu +1
Manipulation of magnons in artificial magnonic crystals (MCs) leads to fascinating nonlinear wave phenomena such as the generation of gap solitons, which has been mostly limited to…
Signatures of elastoviscous buckling in the dilute rheology of stiff polymers
Brato Chakrabarti, Yanan Liu, Olivia du Roure +2
As a stiff polymer tumbles in shear flow, it experiences compressive viscous forces that can cause it to buckle and undergo a sequence of morphological transitions with increasing…
Optimised hyperbolic microchannels for the mechanical characterisation of bio-particles
Yanan Liu, Konstantinos Zografos, Joana Fidalgo +8
The transport of bio-particles in viscous flows exhibits a rich variety of dynamical behaviour, such as morphological transitions, complex orientation dynamics or deformations. Cha…
Flexible filaments buckle into helicoidal shapes in strong compressional flows
Brato Chakrabarti, Yanan Liu, John LaGrone +5
The occurrence of coiled or helical morphologies is common in nature, from plant roots to DNA packaging into viral capsids, as well as in applications such as oil drilling processe…
Morphological transitions of elastic filaments in shear flow
Yanan Liu, Brato Chakrabarti, David Saintillan +2
The morphological dynamics, instabilities and transitions of elastic filaments in viscous flows underlie a wealth of biophysical processes from flagellar propulsion to intracellula…
Global classical solutions to a Compressible Model for Micro-Macro Polymeric Fluids Near Equilibrium
Ning Jiang, Yanan Liu, Teng-Fei Zhang
In this paper we first employ the energetic variational method to derive a micro-macro model for compressible polymeric fluids. This model is a coupling of isentropic compressible…
