Shear-Induced Collective Shape Oscillations in Dense Soft Suspensions
Ioannis Hadjifrangiskou, Rahil N. Valani, Diogo E. P. Pinto
Dense suspensions of deformable particles can exhibit rich nonequilibrium dynamics arising from complex flow-structure coupling. Using a multi-phase field model, we show that stead…

Spontaneous Hole Formation in Cell Monolayers Emerges from Collective Cell Motion
Diogo E. P. Pinto, Jan Rozman, Julia M. Yeomans
Although cell monolayers typically remain confluent, they can spontaneously develop persistent holes as a result of collective cellular motion. Recent studies on MDCK monolayers cu…

A Falsifiability Test for Classical Nucleation Theory
Camilla Beneduce, Diogo E. P. Pinto, Lorenzo Rovigatti +4
Classical nucleation theory (CNT) is built upon the capillarity approximation, i.e., the assumption that the nucleation properties can be inferred from the bulk properties of the m…
