Conformations, hydrodynamic interactions, and instabilities of sedimenting semiflexible filaments
G. Saggiorato, J. Elgeti, R. G. Winkler +1
The conformations and dynamics of semiflexible filaments subject to a homogeneous external (gravitational) field, e.g., in a centrifuge, are studied numerically and analytically. T…
