Order and shape dependence of mechanical relaxation in proliferating active matter

Jonas Isensee, Lukas Hupe, Philip Bittihn

Collective dynamics in proliferating anisotropic particle systems arise from an interplay between growth, division, and mechanical interactions, often mediated by particle shape. I…

Prediction and control of geometry-induced nematic order in growing multicellular systems

Lukas Hupe, Jonas Isensee, Ramin Golestanian +1

In densely-packed two-dimensional systems of growing cells, such as rod-shaped bacteria, a number of experimental and numerical studies report distinct patterns of nematic orientat…

Sensitive particle shape dependence of growth-induced mesoscale nematic structure

Jonas Isensee, Philip Bittihn

Directed growth, anisotropic cell shapes, and confinement drive self-organization in multicellular systems. We investigate the influence of particle shape on the distribution and d…

A minimal model of smoothly dividing disk-shaped cells

Lukas Hupe, Yoav G. Pollack, Jonas Isensee +3

Replication through cell division is one of the most fundamental processes of life and a major driver of dynamics in systems ranging from bacterial colonies to embryogenesis, tissu…

Stress anisotropy in confined populations of growing rods

Jonas Isensee, Lukas Hupe, Ramin Golestanian +1

Order and alignment are ubiquitous in growing colonies of rod-shaped bacteria due to the nematic properties of the constituent particles. These effects are the result of the active…
