Nonreciprocity induces resonances in two-field Cahn-Hilliard model

Tobias Frohoff-Hülsmann, Uwe Thiele, Len M. Pismen

We consider a non-reciprocically coupled two-field Cahn-Hilliard system that has been shown to allow for oscillatory behaviour, a suppression of coarsening as well as the existence…

Vector Formalism for Active Nematics in Two Dimensions

L. M. Pismen

Specific features of two-dimensional nematodynamics give rise to shortfalls of the tensor representation of the nematic order parameter commonly used in computations, especially in…

Fiber-based shape-morphing architectures

Andrei Zakharov, Len M. Pismen, Leonid Ionov

We describe a combined experimental and theoretical investigation of shape-morphing structures assembled by actuating composite (Janus) fibers, taking into account multiple relevan…

Programmable Filaments and Textiles

A. P. Zakharov, L. M. Pismen

We analyze the various morphing structures obtained by actuating Janus filaments comprising driven and passive sectors and textiles incorporating driven and passive filaments. Tran…

Multiplicity of actuated shapes in woven fabrics with twisted Janus fibres

A. P. Zakharov, L. M. Pismen

We investigate actuation of woven fabrics including active Janus fibres with an imposed twist, which bend in variable directions upon phase transition between isotropic and nematic…

Active textiles with Janus fibres

A. P. Zakharov, L. M. Pismen

We describe reshaping of active textiles actuated by bending of Janus fibres comprising both active and passive components. A great variety of shapes, determined by minimising the…
