Droplet Breakup Against an Isolated Obstacle
David J. Meer, Shivnag Sista, Mark D. Shattuck +2
We describe combined experiments and simulations of droplet breakup during flow-driven interactions with a circular obstacle in a quasi-two-dimensional microfluidic chamber. Due to…
Cell Shape Emerges from Motion
Gautham Gopinath, Emmanuel Y. Mintah, Aashrith Saraswathibhatla +6
We perform cell segmentation on images from experimental studies of confluent, mobile cells in epithelial monolayers and show that these systems possess a broad, positively-skewed…
SCUDDO: An unsupervised clustering algorithm for single-cell Hi-C maps using diagonal diffusion operators
Luka Maisuradze, Corey S. O'Hern, Mark D. Shattuck
Motivation: Advances in high-throughput chromatin conformation capture have provided insight into the three-dimensional structure and organization of chromatin. While bulk Hi-C exp…
Particle-scale origin of quadrupolar non-affine displacement fields in granular solids
Evan P. Willmarth, Weiwei Jin, Dong Wang +4
In this work, we identify the local structural defects that control the non-affine displacement fields in jammed disk packings subjected to athermal, quasistatic (AQS) simple shear…
Evolution of Adaptive Force Chains in Reconfigurable Granular Metamaterials
Sven Witthaus, Atoosa Parsa, Dong Wang +7
Under an externally applied load, granular packings form force chains that depend on the contact network and moduli of the grains. In this work, we investigate packings of variable…
Tuning the Size and Stiffness of Inflatable Particles
Nidhi Pashine, Dong Wang, Robert Baines +4
We describe size-varying cylindrical particles made from silicone elastomers that can serve as building blocks for robotic granular materials. The particle size variation, which is…
