Stationary shapes of deformable particles moving at low Reynolds numbers
Horst-Holger Boltz, Jan Kierfeld
Lecture Notes of the Summer School ``Microswimmers -- From Single Particle Motion to Collective Behaviour'', organised by the DFG Priority Programme SPP 1726 (Forschungszentrum J{ü…
Shapes of sedimenting soft elastic capsules in a viscous fluid
Horst-Holger Boltz, Jan Kierfeld
Soft elastic capsules which are driven through a viscous fluid undergo shape deformation coupled to their motion. We introduce an iterative solution scheme which couples hydrodynam…
Elasticity of Interfacial Rafts of Hard Particles with Soft Shells
Sebastian Knoche, Jan Kierfeld
We study an elasticity model for compressed protein monolayers or particle rafts at a liquid interface. Based on the microscopic view of hard-core particles with soft shells, a bea…
Monte Carlo Simulation of Dense Polymer Melts Using Event Chain Algorithms
Tobias Alexander Kampmann, Horst-Holger Boltz, Jan Kierfeld
We propose an efficient Monte Carlo algorithm for the off-lattice simulation of dense hard sphere polymer melts using cluster moves, called event chains, which allow for a rejectio…
