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…
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…
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 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…
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…
