Propagation of active nematic-isotropic interfaces on substrates
Rodrigo C. V. Coelho, Nuno A. M. Araújo, Margarida M. Telo da Gama
Motivated by results for the propagation of active-passive interfaces of bacterial Serratia marcescens swarms [Nat. Comm., 9, 5373 (2018)] we use a hydrodynamic multiphase model to…
Lattice-Boltzmann simulation of free nematic-isotropic interfaces
Rodrigo C. V. Coelho, Nuno A. M. Araújo, Margarida M. Telo da Gama
We use a hybrid method of lattice Boltzmann and finite differences to simulate flat and curved interfaces between the nematic and isotropic phases of a liquid crystal described by…
Active nematic-isotropic interfaces in channels
Rodrigo C. V. Coelho, Nuno A. M. Araújo, Margarida M. Telo da Gama
We use numerical simulations to investigate the hydrodynamic behavior of the interface between nematic (N) and isotropic (I) phases of a confined active liquid crystal. At low acti…
