Hydrophobic droplets in amphiphilic bilayers: a coarse-grained mean-field theory study
M. J. Greenall, C. M. Marques
Hydrophobic molecules such as oils and certain drugs can be encapsulated between the two leaflets of an amphiphilic bilayer in both lipid and polymer systems. We investigate the ca…
Enhanced shear separation for chiral magnetic colloidal aggregates
C. I. Mendoza, C. M. Marques, F. Thalmann
We study the designing principles of the simplest colloidal propeller, an architecture built from four identical spheres that can couple translation with rotation to produce contro…
Abrasion of flat rotating shapes
A. E. Roth, C. M. Marques, D. J. Durian
We report on the erosion of flat linoleum "pebbles" under steady rotation in a slurry of abrasive grit. To quantify shape as a function of time, we develop a general method in whic…
The shape and erosion of pebbles
D. J. Durian, H. Bideaud, P. Duringer +2
The shapes of flat pebbles may be characterized in terms of the statistical distribution of curvatures measured along their contours. We illustrate this new method for clay pebbles…
Compression modulus of macroscopic fiber bundles
P. Beckrich, G. Weick, C. M. Marques +1
We study dense, disordered stacks of elastic macroscopic fibers. These stacks often exhibit non-linear elasticity, due to the coupling between the applied stress and the internal d…
Local entropic effects of polymers grafted to soft interfaces
T. Bickel, C. Jeppesen, C. M. Marques
In this paper, we study the equilibrium properties of polymer chains end-tethered to a fluid membrane. The loss of conformational entropy of the polymer results in an inhomogeneous…
