Particle Conservation in Dynamical Density Functional Theory
Daniel de las Heras, Joseph M. Brader, Andrea Fortini +1
We present the exact adiabatic theory for the dynamics of the inhomogeneous density distribution of a classical fluid. Erroneous particle number fluctuations of dynamical density f…
Temperature (de)activated patchy colloidal particles
Daniel de las Heras, Margarida M. Telo da Gama
We present a new model of patchy particles in which the interaction sites can be activated or deactivated by varying the temperature of the system. We study the thermodynamics of t…
Capillary and winding transitions in a confined cholesteric liquid crystal
Daniel de las Heras, Enrique Velasco, Yuri Martínez-Ratón
We consider a Lebwohl-Lasher model of chiral particles confined in a planar cell (slit pore) with different boundary conditions, and solve it using mean-field theory. The phase beh…
Ordering in granular rod monolayers driven far from thermodynamic equilibrium
Thomas Müller, Daniel de las Heras, Ingo Rehberg +1
The orientational order in vertically agitated granular rod monolayers is investigated experimentally and compared quantitatively with equilibrium Monte Carlo simulations and densi…
Confinement of two-dimensional rods in slit pores and square cavities
Thomas Geigenfeind, Sebastian Rosenzweig, Matthias Schmidt +1
Using Monte Carlo simulation, we analyse the behaviour of two-dimensional hard rods in four different types of geometric confinement: (i) a slit pore where the particles are confin…
