Self-Propelled Rods near Surfaces
Jens Elgeti, Gerhard Gompper
We study the behavior of self-propelled nano- and micro-rods in three dimensions, confined between two parallel walls, by simulations and scaling arguments. Our simulations include…

Nematic liquid crystals at rough and fluctuating interfaces
Jens Elgeti, Friederike Schmid
Nematic liquid crystals at rough and fluctuating interfaces are analyzed within the Frank elastic theory and the Landau-de Gennes theory. We study specifically interfaces that loca…
