Folding pathways to crumpling in thermalized elastic frames

D. Yllanes, D. R. Nelson, M. J. Bowick

The mechanical properties of thermally excited two-dimensional crystalline membranes can depend dramatically on their geometry and topology. A particularly relevant example is the…

Curvature-dependent tension and tangential flows at the interface of motility-induced phases

Adam Patch, Daniel Sussman, David Yllanes +1

Purely repulsive active particles spontaneously undergo motility-induced phase separation (MIPS) into condensed and dilute phases. Remarkably, the mechanical tension measured along…

Thermal crumpling of perforated two-dimensional sheets

D. Yllanes, S. S. Bhabesh, D. R. Nelson +1

Thermalized elastic membranes without distant self-avoidance are believed to undergo a crumpling transition when the microscopic bending stiffness is comparable to , the scale…

Kinetics of motility-induced phase separation and swim pressure

Adam Patch, David Yllanes, M. Cristina Marchetti

Active Brownian particles (ABPs) represent a minimal model of active matter consisting of self-propelled spheres with purely repulsive interactions and rotational noise. Here, we e…

Minimal model of active colloids highlights the role of mechanical interactions in controlling the emergent behavior of active matter

M. Cristina Marchetti, Yaouen Fily, Silke Henkes +2

Minimal models of active Brownian colloids consisting of self-propelled spherical particles with purely repulsive interactions have recently been identified as excellent quantitati…
