Topological kicks enhance colloidal diffusivity in topological turbulence
Timofey Kozhukhov, Benjamin Loewe, Kristian Thijssen +1
Colloidal inclusions in nematic fluids induce topological defects that govern their dynamics. These defects create well-understood rheological behavior in passive nematics, but the…
Mitigating Density Fluctuations in Particle-based Active Nematic Simulations
Timofey Kozhukhov, Benjamin Loewe, Tyler N. Shendruk
Understanding active matter has led to new perspectives on biophysics and non-equilibrium dynamics. However, the development of numerical tools for simulating active fluids capable…
Active Darcy's Law
Ryan R. Keogh, Timofey Kozhukhov, Kristian Thijssen +1
While bacterial swarms can exhibit active turbulence in vacant spaces, they naturally inhabit crowded environments. We numerically show that driving disorderly active fluids throug…
Mesoscopic Simulations of Active-Nematics
Timofey Kozhukhov, Tyler N. Shendruk
Coarse-grained, mesoscale simulations are invaluable for studying soft condensed matter because of their ability to model systems in which a background solvent plays a significant…
