Statistical Properties of Autonomous Flows in 2D Active Nematics
Linnea M Lemma, Stephen J Decamp, Zhihong You +2
We study the dynamics of a tunable 2D active nematic liquid crystal composed of microtubules and kinesin motors confined to an oil-water interface. Kinesin motors continuously inje…
Transition from turbulent to coherent flows in confined three-dimensional active fluids
Kun-Ta Wu, Jean Bernard Hishamunda, Daniel T. N. Chen +5
Transport of fluid through a pipe is essential for the operation of macroscale machines and microfluidic devices. Conventional fluids only flow in response to external pressure. We…
Spontaneous motion in hierarchically assembled active matter
Tim Sanchez, Daniel T. N. Chen, Stephen J. DeCamp +2
With exquisite precision and reproducibility, cells orchestrate the cooperative action of thousands of nanometer-sized molecular motors to carry out mechanical tasks at much larger…
