Spatiotemporal Control of Charge +1 Topological Defects in Polar Active Matter
Birte C. Geerds, Abhinav Singh, Mathieu Dedenon +4
Topological defects are a conspicuous feature of active liquid crystals that have been associated with important morphogenetic transitions in organismal development. Robust develop…
Three-dimensional formulation of curved nematic shells
Mathieu Dedenon
In soft matter, the phase of nematic liquid crystals can be made from anisotropic molecules in single component materials, or as a suspension of mesoscopic nematogens. The later of…
The importance of being discrete -- An agent-based model for active nematics and more
Mathieu Dedenon, Carles Blanch-Mercader, Karsten Kruse +1
We propose an agent-based model of active flexible rods. Inspired by cytoskeletal flows, we introduce activity by an internal flow that contributes to the dissipative forces. The a…
Noise-induced transitions from contractile to extensile active stress in isotropic fluids
Mathieu Dedenon, Karsten Kruse
Tissues of living cells are a prime example of active fluids. There is experimental evidence that tissues generate extensile active stress even though their constituting cells are…
Density-polarity coupling in confined active polar films: asters, spirals, and biphasic orientational phases
Mathieu Dedenon, Claire A. Dessalles, Pau Guillamat +3
Topological defects in active polar fluids can organise spontaneous flows and influence macroscopic density patterns. Both of them play, for example, an important role during anima…
Model of lamellipodium initiation during cell spreading
Mathieu Dedenon, Pierre Sens
Cell spreading requires a major reorganisation of the actin cytoskeleton, from a cortical structure to a lamellipodium where filaments are mostly parallel to the substrate. We prop…
