Curved Tails in Polymerization-Based Bacterial Motility
A. D. Rutenberg, M. Grant
The curved actin ``comet-tail'' of the bacterium Listeria monocytogenes is a visually striking signature of actin polymerization-based motility. Similar actin tails are associated…
Molecular weight effects on chain pull-out fracture of reinforced polymeric interfaces
Mohsen Sabouri-Ghomi, Slava Ispolatov, Martin Grant
Using Brownian dynamics, we simulate the fracture of polymer interfaces reinforced by diblock connector chains. We find that for short chains the interface fracture toughness depen…
Numerical simulations of scattering speckle from phase ordering systems
Gregory Brown, Per Arne Rikvold, Martin Grant
The scattering of coherent X-rays from dynamically evolving systems is currently becoming experimentally feasible. The scattered beam produces a pattern of bright and dark speckles…
New Dynamic Monte Carlo Renormalization Group Method
Martin-D. Lacasse, Jorge Vinals, Martin Grant
The dynamical critical exponent of the two-dimensional spin-flip Ising model is evaluated by a Monte Carlo renormalization group method involving a transformation in time. The resu…
Dynamic scaling and quasi-ordered states in the two dimensional Swift-Hohenberg equation
K. R. Elder, Jorge Viñals, Martin Grant
The process of pattern formation in the two dimensional Swift-Hohenberg equation is examined through numerical and analytic methods. Dynamic scaling relationships are developed for…
