Topology and Dynamics of Active Nematic Vesicles
Felix C. Keber, Etienne Loiseau, Tim Sanchez +6
Engineering synthetic materials that mimic the remarkable complexity of living organisms is a fundamental challenge in science and technology. We study the spatiotemporal patterns…
Nucleation-induced transition to collective motion in active systems
Christoph. A. Weber, Volker Schaller, Andreas R. Bausch +1
While the existence of polar ordered states in active systems is well established, the dynamics of the self-assembly processes are still elusive. We study a lattice gas model of se…
Frozen steady states in active systems
Volker Schaller, Christoph Weber, Benjamin Hammerich +2
Even simple active systems can show a plethora of intriguing phenomena and often we find complexity were we would have expected simplicity. One striking example is the occurrence o…
Collective dynamics of active cytoskeletal networks
Simone Köhler, Volker Schaller, Andreas R. Bausch
Self organization mechanisms are essential for the cytoskeleton to adapt to the requirements of living cells. They rely on the intricate interplay of cytoskeletal filaments, crossl…
Structure formation in active networks
Simone Köhler, Volker Schaller, Andreas R. Bausch
Structure formation and constant reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton are key requirements for the function of living cells. Here we show that a minimal reconstituted system co…
Transient Binding and Dissipation in Semi-flexible Polymer Networks
O. Lieleg, M. M. A. E. Claessens, Y. Luan +1
While polymer solutions lack the mechanical stability only transiently cross-linked networks can fulfill the competing requirements of structural stability and maximal energy dissi…
