Excluded volume effect in flexible dendrimer systems: A self-consistent field theory
Meng Shi, Yingzi Yang, Feng Qiu
We have studied the conformational and scaling behaviors of a flexible dendrimer immersed in athermal or good solvents. A self-consistent field theory combined with a pre-averaged…
Self-Organized Vortices of Circling Self-Propelled Particles and Curved Active Flagella
Yingzi Yang, Feng Qiu, Gerhard Gompper
Self-propelled point-like particles move along circular trajectories when their translocation velocity is constant and the angular velocity related to their orientation vector is a…
Swarm behavior of self-propelled rods and swimming flagella
Yingzi Yang, Vincent Marceau, Gerhard Gompper
Systems of self-propelled particles are known for their tendency to aggregate and to display swarm behavior. We investigate two model systems, self-propelled rods interacting via v…
Fluctuations of a long, semiflexible polymer in a narrow channel
Theodore W. Burkhardt, Yingzi Yang, Gerhard Gompper
We consider an inextensible, semiflexible polymer or worm-like chain, with persistence length and contour length , fluctuating in a cylindrical channel of diameter . In t…
Cooperation of Sperm in Two Dimensions: Synchronization, Attraction and Aggregation through Hydrodynamic Interactions
Yingzi Yang, Jens Elgeti, Gerhard Gompper
Sperm swimming at low Reynolds number have strong hydrodynamic interactions when their concentration is high in vivo or near substrates in vitro. The beating tails not only propel…
Free energy and extension of a semiflexible polymer in cylindrical confining geometries
Yingzi Yang, Theodore W. Burkhardt, Gerhard Gompper
We consider a long, semiflexible polymer, with persistence length and contour length , fluctuating in a narrow cylindrical channel of diameter . In the regime $D\ll P\ll…
