Demixing in binary mixtures with differential diffusivity at high density
Erin McCarthy, Ojan Damavandi, Raj Kumar Manna +1
Spontaneous phase separation, or demixing, is important in biological phenomena such as cell sorting. In particle-based models, an open question is whether differences in diffusivi…

Energetic rigidity II: Applications in examples of biological and underconstrained materials
Ojan Khatib Damavandi, Varda F. Hagh, Christian D. Santangelo +1
This is the second paper devoted to energetic rigidity, in which we apply our formalism to examples in two dimensions: underconstrained random regular spring networks, vertex model…

Energetic rigidity I: A unifying theory of mechanical stability
Ojan Khatib Damavandi, Varda F. Hagh, Christian D. Santangelo +1
Rigidity regulates the integrity and function of many physical and biological systems. This is the first of two papers on the origin of rigidity, wherein we propose that "energetic…
