Jamming and percolation in the random sequential adsorption of a binary mixture on the square lattice
Sumanta Kundu, Henrique C. Prates, Nuno A. M. Araujo
We study the competitive irreversible adsorption of a binary mixture of monomers and square-shaped particles of linear size on the square lattice. With the random sequential ad…
Substrate disorder promotes cell motility in confluent tissues
Diogo E. P. Pinto, Margarida M. Telo da Gama, Nuno A. M. Araujo
In vivo and in vitro cells rely on the support of an underlying biocompatible substrate, such as the extracellular matrix or a culture substrate, to spread and proliferate. The mec…
Hierarchical structure of the energy landscape in the Voronoi model of dense tissue
D. E. P. Pinto, D. M. Sussman, M. M. Telo da Gama +1
The Voronoi model is a popular tool for studying confluent living tissues. It exhibits an anomalous glassy behavior even at very low temperatures or weak active self-propulsion, an…
Lattice model for self-folding at the microscale
T. S. A. N. Simões, H. P. M. Melo, N. A. M. Araújo
Three-dimensional shell-like structures can be obtained spontaneously at the microscale from the self-folding of 2D templates of rigid panels. At least for simple structures, the m…
