Symmetry-breaking, motion and bistability of active drops through polarization-surface coupling
Fenna Stegemerten, Karin John, Uwe Thiele
Cell crawling crucially depends on the collective dynamics of the acto-myosin cytoskeleton. However, it remains an open question to what extent cell polarization and persistent mot…
Bifurcations of front motion in passive and active Allen-Cahn-type equations
Fenna Stegemerten, Svetlana Gurevich, Uwe Thiele
The well-known cubic Allen-Cahn (AC) equation is a simple gradient dynamics (or variational) model for a nonconserved order parameter field. After revising main literature results…
Thin-Film Modelling of Resting and Moving Active Droplets
Sarah Trinschek, Fenna Stegemerten, Karin John +1
We propose a generic model for thin films and shallow drops of a polar active liquid that have a free surface and are in contact with a solid substrate. The model couples evolution…
