Complex Dynamics in Reaction-Phase Separation Systems
Dino Osmanovic, Elisa Franco
We investigate the emergence of sustained spatio-temporal behaviors in reaction-phase separation systems. We focus on binary systems, in which either one or both species can phase…
Generating forces in confinement via polymerization
Dino Osmanovic, Elisa Franco
Understanding how to produce forces using biomolecular building blocks is essential for the development of adaptive synthetic cells and living materials. Here we ask whether a dyna…
Robust microphase separation through chemical reaction networks
Franco Blanchini, Elisa Franco, Giulia Giordano +1
The interaction of phase-separating systems with chemical reactions is of great interest in various contexts, from biology to material science. In biology, phase separation is thou…
Microscopic modifications of equilibrium probabilities due to non-conservative perturbations with applications to anharmonic systems
Dino Osmanovic
The standard relationships of statistical mechanics are upended my the presence of active forces. In particular, it is no longer usually possible to simply write down what the stat…
Chemical reaction motifs driving non-equilibrium behaviors in phase separating materials
Dino Osmanovic, Elisa Franco
Chemical reactions that couple to systems that phase separate have been implicated in diverse contexts from biology to materials science. However, how a particular set of chemical…
Ray Optics for Gliders
Tyler D. Ross, Dino Osmanović, John F. Brady +1
Control of self-propelled particles is central to the development of many microrobotic technologies, from dynamically reconfigurable materials to advanced lab-on-a-chip systems. Ho…
Spatial distributions of non-conservatively interacting particles
Dino Osmanovic
Certain types of active systems can be treated as an equilibrium system with excess non-conservative forces driving some of the microscopic degrees of freedom. We derive results fo…
Chemically Active Nanodroplets in a Multi-Component Fluid
Dino Osmanovic, Yitzhak Rabin
We introduce a model of chemically active particles of a multi-component fluid that can change their interactions with other particles depending on their state. Since such switchin…
Effect of Grafting on Aggregation of Intrinsically Disordered Proteins
Dino Osmanovic, Yitzhak Rabin
A significant part of the proteome is composed of intrinsically-disordered proteins (IDPs). These proteins do not fold into a well-defined structure and behave like ordinary polyme…
Darwinian Selection Induces Lamarckian Adaptation in a Holobiont Model
Dino Osmanovic, David A Kessler, Yitzhak Rabin +1
Current models of animal evolution focus on selection of individuals, ignoring the much faster selection of symbiotic bacteria. Here we take host-symbiont interactions into account…
Dynamics of Active Rouse Chains
Dino Osmanovic, Yitzhak Rabin
We consider how active forces modeled as non-thermal random noise affect the average dynamical properties of a Rouse polymer. As the power spectrum of the noise is not known we kee…
Effect of non-specific interactions on formation and stability of specific complexes
Dino Osmanovic, Yitzhak Rabin
We introduce a simple model to describe the interplay between specific and non-specific interactions. We study the influence of various physical factors on the static and dynamic p…
Universal Protein Distributions in a Model of Cell Growth and Division
Naama Brenner, C. M. Newman, Dino Osmanovic +3
Protein distributions measured under a broad set of conditions in bacteria and yeast were shown to exhibit a common skewed shape, with variances depending quadratically on means. F…
Pair interaction ordering in fluids with random interactions
Lenin S. Shagolsem, Dino Osmanović, Orit Peleg +1
We use molecular dynamics simulations in 2d to study multi-component fluid in the limiting case where {\it all the particles are different} (APD). The particles are assumed to inte…
Bistable collective behavior of polymers tethered in a nanopore
Dino Osmanovic, Joe Bailey, Anthony H. Harker +3
Polymer-coated pores play a crucial role in nucleo-cytoplasmic transport and in a number of biomimetic and nanotechnological applications. Here we present Monte Carlo and Density F…
