Boundaries Program Deformation in Isolated Active Networks
Zixiang Lin, Shichen Liu, Shahriar Shadkhoo +9
Cellular structures must organize themselves within strict physical constraints, operating with finite resources and well-defined boundaries. Classical systems demonstrate only pas…
Programming Boundary Deformation Patterns in Active Networks
Zijie Qu, Jialong Jiang, Heun Jin Lee +3
Active materials take advantage of their internal sources of energy to self-organize in an automated manner. This feature provides a novel opportunity to design micron-scale machin…
Persistent fluid flows defined by active matter boundaries
Zijie Qu, Dominik Schildknecht, Shahriar Shadkhoo +5
Biological systems achieve precise control over ambient fluids through the self-organization of active protein structures including flagella, cilia, and cytoskeletal networks. In a…
