Slow Relaxation and Landscape-Driven Dynamics in Viscous Ripening Foams
Amruthesh Thirumalaiswamy, Clary Rodríguez-Cruz, Robert A. Riggleman +1
Foams and dense emulsions display complex mechanical behavior, including intermittent rearrangement dynamics, power-law rheology, and slow recovery after perturbation. These effect…
Experimental observations of fractal landscape dynamics in a dense emulsion
Clary Rodriguez-Cruz, Mehdi Molaei, Amruthesh Thirumalaiswamy +6
Many soft and biological materials display so-called 'soft glassy' dynamics; their constituents undergo anomalous random motions and complex cooperative rearrangements. A recent si…
Exploring canyons in glassy energy landscapes using metadynamics
Amruthesh Thirumalaiswamy, Robert A. Riggleman, John C. Crocker
The complex physics of glass forming systems is controlled by the structure of the low energy portions of their potential energy landscapes. Here, we report that a modified metadyn…
Probing lipid membrane bending mechanics using gold nanorod tracking
Mehdi Molaei, Sreeja Kutti Kandy, Zachary T. Graber +3
Lipid bilayer membranes undergo rapid bending undulations with wavelengths from tens of nanometers to tens of microns due to thermal fluctuations. Here, we probe such undulations a…
