Mechanical characterization of disordered and anisotropic cellular monolayers
Alexander Nestor-Bergmann, Emma Johns, Sarah Woolner +1
We consider a cellular monolayer, described using a vertex-based model, for which cells form a spatially disordered array of convex polygons that tile the plane. Equilibrium cell c…
Homogenization approximations for unidirectional transport past randomly distributed sinks
Matthew J. Russell, Oliver E. Jensen
Transport in biological systems often occurs in complex spatial environments involving random structures. Motivated by such applications, we investigate an idealised model for solu…
Drop spreading and drifting on a spatially heterogeneous film: capturing variability with asymptotics and emulation
Feng Xu, Sam Coveney, Oliver E. Jensen
A liquid drop spreading over a thin heterogeneous precursor film (such as an inhaled droplet on the mucus-lined wall of a lung airway) will experience perturbations in shape and lo…
Trapping and displacement of liquid collars and plugs in rough-walled tubes
Feng Xu, Oliver E. Jensen
A liquid film wetting the interior of a long circular cylinder redistributes under the action of surface tension to form annular collars or occlusive plugs. These equilibrium struc…
