Multi-component colloidal gels: interplay between structure and mechanical proprieties
Claudia Ferreiro-Cordova, Mehdi Bouzid, Emanuela Del Gado +1
We present a detailed numerical study of multi-component colloidal gels interacting sterically and obtained by arrested phase separation. Under deformation, we found that the inter…
Long-time anomalous swimmer diffusion in smectic liquid crystals
Claudia Ferreiro-Córdova, John Toner, Hartmut Löwen +1
The dynamics of self-locomotion of active particles in aligned or liquid crystalline fluids strongly deviates from that in simple isotropic media. We explore the long-time dynamics…
Twisting with a twist: supramolecular helix fluctuations in chiral nematics
H. H. Wensink, C. Ferreiro-Córdova
Most theoretical descriptions of lyotropic cholesteric liquid crystals to date focus on homogeneous systems in which the rod concentration, as opposed to the rod orientation, is un…
Spinodal instabilities in polydisperse lyotropic nematics
C. Ferreiro-Córdova, H. H. Wensink
Many lyotropic liquid crystals are composed of mesogens that display a considerable spread in size or shape affecting their material properties and thermodynamics via various demix…
