Rheology of an inverted cholesteric droplet under shear flow
Federico Fadda, Giuseppe Gonnella, Antonio Lamura +2
The dynamics of a quasi two-dimensional isotropic droplet in a cholesteric liquid crystal medium under symmetric shear flow is studied by lattice Boltzmann simulations. We consider…

Lamellar ordering, droplet formation and phase inversion in exotic active emulsions
Francesco Bonelli, Livio Nicola Carenza, Giuseppe Gonnella +3
We study numerically the behaviour of a mixture of a passive isotropic fluid and an active polar gel, in the presence of a surfactant favouring emulsification. Focussing on paramet…
