Cell motility: a viscous fingering analysis of active gels
M. Ben Amar, O. V. Manyuhina, G. Napoli
The symmetry breaking of the actin network from radial to longitudinal symmetry has been identified as the major mechanism for keratocytes (fish cells) motility on solid substrate.…
Instability patterns in ultrathin nematic films: comparison between theory and experiment
O. V. Manyuhina, A. -M. Cazabat, M. Ben Amar
Motivated by recent experimental observations [U. Delabre et al, Langmuir 24, 3998, 2008] we reconsider an instability of ultrathin nematic films, spread on liquid substrates. With…
Topological instabilities of spherical vesicles
O. V. Manyuhina, A. Fasolino, P. C. M. Christianen +1
Within the framework of the Helfrich elastic theory of membranes and of differential geometry we study the possible instabilities of spherical vesicles towards double bubbles. We f…
Slow dynamics in a model of the cellulose network
O. V. Manyuhina, A. Fasolino, M. I. Katsnelson
We present numerical simulations of a model of cellulose consisting of long stiff rods, representing cellulose microfibrils, connected by stretchable crosslinks, representing xylog…
