Jamming on deformable surfaces
Zhaoyu Xie, Timothy J Atherton
Jamming is a fundamental transition that governs the mechanical behavior of particulate media, including sand, foam and dense suspensions but also biological tissues: Upon compress…
Arrested coalescence of viscoelastic droplets: Triplet shape and restructuring
Prerna Dahiya, Andrew DeBenedictis, Timothy J. Atherton +4
The stability of shapes formed by three viscoelastic droplets during their arrested coalescence has been investigated using micromanipulation experiments. Addition of a third dropl…
Percolation transition in the packing of bidispersed particles on curved surfaces
Andrew M. Mascioli, Christopher J. Burke, Timothy J. Atherton
We study packings of bidispersed spherical particles on a spherical surface. The presence of curvature necessitates defects even for monodispersed particles; bidispersity either le…
Energy Minimization for Liquid Crystal Equilibrium with Electric and Flexoelectric Effects
J. H. Adler, T. J. Atherton, T. R. Benson +2
This paper outlines an energy-minimization finite-element approach to the modeling of equilibrium configurations for nematic liquid crystals in the presence of internal and externa…
Gender and Sexual Diversity Issues in Physics: The Audience Speaks
Nicole Ackerman, Timothy J. Atherton, Wouter Deconinck +4
An account is presented of the special session on "Gender and Sexual Diversity Issues in Physics" which took place at the American Physical Society March Meeting 2012. The opinions…
