Dynamic bidirectional coupling of membrane morphology and rod organization in flexible vesicles

Stijn van der Ham, André F. V. Matias, Marjolein Dijkstra +1

The ordering of rod-like particles in soft, deformable containers emerges from the interplay of anisotropic interactions, geometric confinement, and boundary compliance. This compe…

Shape anisotropy governs organization of active rods: Swarming, turbulence, flocking, and jamming

Yogesh Shelke, Anpuj Nair S, Hanumantha Rao Vutukuri

Shape anisotropy of individual building blocks plays a crucial role in creating exotic structures and controlling phase behavior in equilibrium systems. We present a combined exper…

Programmable Persistent Random Walks in Active Brownian Particles Govern Emergent Dynamics

Tarun Sunkesula Raghavendra, Yogesh Shelke, Stijn van der Ham +2

Self-propelled particles serve as minimal models for emulating the dynamic self-organization of microorganisms, yet most synthetic systems remain limited to a single mode of motion…

From shallow to full wrapping: geometry and deformability dictate lipid vesicle internalization

Stijn van der Ham, Alexander Brown, Halim Kusumaatmaja +1

The deformability of vesicles critically influences their engulfment by lipid membranes, a process central to endocytosis, viral entry, drug delivery, and intercellular transport.…

Unifying atoms and colloids near the glass transition through bond-order topology

Laura Stricker, Peter M. Derlet, Ahmet Faik Demirörs +2

In this combined experimental and simulation study, we utilize bond-order topology to quantitatively match particle volume fraction in mechanically uniformly compressed colloidal s…
