Gradient dynamics models for liquid films with soluble surfactant
Uwe Thiele, Andrew J. Archer, Len M. Pismen
In this paper we propose equations of motion for the dynamics of liquid films of surfactant suspensions that consist of a general gradient dynamics framework based on an underlying…
Textures and shapes in nematic elastomers under the action of dopant concentration gradients
A. P. Zakharov, L. M. Pismen
We explore a novel strategy of patterning nematic elastomers that does not require inscribing the texture directly. It is based on varying the dopant concentration that, beside shi…
Metric theory of nematoelastic shells
L. M. Pismen
We consider three-dimensional reshaping of a thin nematoelastic film upon nematic-isotropic transition in the field of a charge one topological defect, leading to either cone or an…
Step-emulsification in nanofluidic device
Z. Li, A. M. Leshansky, L. M. Pismen +1
In this paper we present a comprehensive study of the step-emulsification process for high-throughput production of (sub-)m-size monodisperse droplets. The microfluidic device c…
Chemo-mechanical instabilities in polarizable active layers
M. H. Köpf, L. M. Pismen
We formulate and explore a generic continuum model of a polarizable active layer with neo-Hookean elasticity and chemo-mechanical interactions. Homogeneous solutions of the model e…
