The role of topology and mechanics in uniaxially growing cell networks
Alexander Erlich, Gareth W. Jones, Françoise Tisseur +2
In biological systems, the growth of cells, tissues, and organs is influenced by mechanical cues. Locally, cell growth leads to a mechanically heterogeneous environment as cells pu…
Curvature-sensitive kinesin binding can explain microtubule ring formation and reveals chaotic dynamics in a mathematical model
Simon P Pearce, Matthias Heil, Oliver E Jensen +2
Microtubules are filamentous tubular protein polymers which are essential for a range of cellular behaviour, and are generally straight over micron length scales. However, in some…
Quantized transport, strain-induced perfectly conducting modes and valley filtering on shape-optimized graphene Corbino devices
Gareth W. Jones, D. A. Bahamon, A. H. Castro Neto +1
The extreme mechanical resilience of graphene and the peculiar coupling it hosts between lattice and electronic degrees of freedom have spawned a strong impetus towards strain-engi…
Optimal control of plate shape with incompatible strain fields
Gareth Wyn Jones, L. Mahadevan
A flat plate can bend into a curved surface if it experiences an inhomogeneous growth field. In this article a method is described that numerically determines the optimal growth fi…
Designing electronic properties of two-dimensional crystals through optimization of deformations
Gareth Wyn Jones, Vitor M. Pereira
One of the enticing features common to most of the two-dimensional electronic systems that are currently at the forefront of materials science research is the ability to easily int…
