Effects of direction reversals on patterns of active filaments
Leila Abbaspour, Ali Malek, Stefan Karpitschka +1
Active matter systems provide fascinating examples of pattern formation and collective motility without counterparts in equilibrium systems. Here, we employ Brownian dynamics simul…
Pinning-induced folding-unfolding asymmetry in adhesive creases
Michiel A. J. van Limbeek, Martin H. Essink, Anupam Pandey +2
The compression of soft elastic matter and biological tissue can lead to creasing, an instability where a surface folds sharply into periodic self-contacts. Intriguingly, the unfol…
Taylor Dispersion in Thin Liquid Films of Volatile Mixtures: A Quantitative Model for Marangoni Contraction
Olinka Ramirez-Soto, Stefan Karpitschka
The Marangoni contraction of sessile droplets occurs when a binary mixture of volatile liquids is placed on a high-energy surface. Although the surface is wetted completely by the…
