Non-equilibrium orientational dynamics of pinned topological defects in two-dimensional nematic liquid crystals
Petur Bryde, Jörn Dunkel
The long-wavelength dynamics of two-dimensional (2D) nematic liquid crystals (LCs) is dominated by the motion of topological defects, which behave like interacting particles endowe…

Localization in musical steelpans
Petur Bryde, L. Mahadevan
The steelpan is a pitched percussion instrument that takes the form of a concave bowl with several localized dimpled regions of varying curvature. Each of these localized zones, ca…

Geometric control of topological dynamics in a singing saw
Suraj Shankar, Petur Bryde, L. Mahadevan
The common handsaw can be converted into a bowed musical instrument capable of producing exquisitely sustained notes when its blade is appropriately bent. Acoustic modes localized…
