Activity-driven polymer knotting for macromolecular topology engineering
Jia-Xiang Li, Song Wu, Li-Li Hao +2
Macromolecules can gain special properties by adopting knotted conformations, but engineering knotted macromolecules is a challenging task. Here we surprisingly observed that knott…
Fluidization and anomalous density fluctuations in 2D Voronoi cell tissues with pulsating activity
Zhu-Qin Li, Qun-Li Lei, Yu-qiang Ma
Cells not only can be motile by crawling but are also capable of non-motility active motions like periodic contraction or pulsation. In this work, based on a Voronoi cell model, we…
Transformable Super-Isostatic Crystals Self-Assembled from Segment Colloidal Rods
Ji-Dong Hu, Ting Wang, Qun-Li Lei +1
Colloidal particles can spontaneously self-assemble into ordered structures, which not only can manipulate the propagation of light, but also vibration or phonons. Using Monte Carl…
Non-Equilibrium Structural and Dynamic Behaviors of Polar Active Polymer Controlled by Head Activity
Jia-Xiang Li, Song Wu, Li-Li Hao +2
Thermodynamic behavior of polymer chains out of equilibrium is a fundamental problem in both polymer physics and biological physics. By using molecular dynamics simulation, we disc…
Duality,Hidden Symmetry and Dynamic Isomerism in 2D Hinge Structures
Qun-Li Lei, Feng Tang, Ji-Dong Hu +2
Recently, a new type of duality was reported in some deformable mechanical networks which exhibit Kramers-like degeneracy in phononic spectrum at the self-dual point. In this work,…
Self-Assembly of Isostatic Self-Dual Colloidal Crystals
Qun-Li Lei, Wei Zheng, Feng Tang +3
Self-dual structures whose dual counterparts are themselves possess unique hidden symmetry, beyond the description of classical spatial symmetry groups. Here we propose a strategy…
