Static Structure of Active Brownian Hard Disks
Nadine de Macedo Biniossek, Hartmut Löwen, Thomas Voigtmann +1
We explore the changes in static structure of a two-dimensional system of active Brownian particles (ABP) with hard-disk interactions, using event-driven Brownian dynamics simulati…
Low-temperature crystal structures of the hard core square shoulder model
Alexander Gabriëlse, Hartmut Löwen, Frank Smallenburg
In many cases, the stability of complex structures in colloidal systems is enhanced by a competition between different length scales. Inspired by recent experiments on nanoparticle…
Liquid crystals of hard rectangles on flat and cylindrical manifolds
Christoph E. Sitta, Frank Smallenburg, Raphael Wittkowski +1
Using the classical density functional theory of freezing and Monte Carlo computer simulations, we explore the liquid-crystalline phase behavior of hard rectangles on flat and cyli…
Climbing two hills is faster than one: collective barrier-crossing by colloids driven through a microchannel
Urs Zimmermann, Hartmut Löwen, Christian Kreuter +3
Ohm's law is one of the most central transport rules stating that the total resistance of sequential single resistances is additive. While this rule is most commonly applied to ele…
Phase and vacancy behaviour of hard "slanted" cubes
Robin van Damme, Berend van der Meer, Jette Janine van den Broeke +2
We use computer simulations to study the phase behaviour for hard, right rhombic prisms as a function of the angle of their rhombic face (the "slant" angle). More specifically, usi…
Phase diagram of two-dimensional hard rods from fundamental mixed measure density functional theory
René Wittmann, Christoph E. Sitta, Frank Smallenburg +1
A density functional theory for the bulk phase diagram of two-dimensional orientable hard rods is proposed and tested against Monte Carlo computer simulation data. In detail, an ex…
