Memory effects, arches and polar defect ordering at the cross-over from wet to dry active nematics
Mehrana Raeisian Nejad, Amin Doostmohammadi, Julia Mary Yeomans
We use analytic arguments and numerical solutions of the continuum, active nematohydrodynamic equations to study how friction alters the behaviour of active nematics. Concentrating…

Role of friction in multidefect ordering
Kristian Thijssen, Mehrana R. Nejad, Julia M. Yeomans
We use continuum simulations to study the impact of friction on the ordering of defects in an active nematic. Even in a frictionless system, +1/2 defects tend to align side-by-side…
