Cell mechanics, environmental geometry, and cell polarity control cell-cell collision outcomes
Yongtian Luo, Amrinder S. Nain, Brian A. Camley
Interactions between crawling cells, which are essential for many biological processes, can be quantified by measuring cell-cell collisions. Conventionally, experiments of cell-cel…
Flow network controlled shape transformation of a thin membrane through differential fluid storage and surface expansion
Yongtian Luo, Che-Ling Ho, Brent R. Helliker +1
The mechanical properties of a thin, planar material, perfused by an embedded flow network, can be changed locally and globally by the fluid transport and storage, resulting in sma…
Leaf water storage and robustness to intermittent drought: A spatially explicit capacitive model for leaf hydraulics
Yongtian Luo, Che-Ling Ho, Brent R. Helliker +1
Leaf hydraulic networks play an important role not only in fluid transport but also in maintaining whole-plant water status through transient environmental changes in soil-based wa…
Phase Diagrams of Multicomponent Lipid Vesicles: Effects of Spherical Topology and Finite Size
Yongtian Luo, Lutz Maibaum
We study the phase behavior of multicomponent lipid bilayer vesicles that can exhibit intriguing morphological patterns and lateral phase separation. We use a modified Landau-Ginzb…
Relating the structure factors of two-dimensional materials in planar and spherical geometries
Yongtian Luo, Lutz Maibaum
Scattering structure factors provide essential insight into material properties and are routinely obtained in experiments, computer simulations, and theoretical analyses. Different…
