A chemo-mechano-thermodynamical contact theory for adhesion, friction and (de)bonding reactions
Roger A. Sauer, Thang X. Duong, Kranthi K. Mandadapu
This work presents a self-contained continuum formulation for coupled chemical, mechanical and thermal contact interactions. The formulation is very general and hence admits arbitr…
Absolute vs Convective Instabilities and Front Propagation in Lipid Membrane Tubes
Joël Tchoufag, Amaresh Sahu, Kranthi K. Mandadapu
We analyze the stability of biological membrane tubes, with and without a base flow of lipids. Membrane dynamics are completely specified by two dimensionless numbers: the well-kno…
Theory of Crystallization versus Vitrification
Muhammad R. Hasyim, Kranthi K. Mandadapu
The competition between crystallization and vitrification in glass-forming materials manifests as a non-monotonic behavior in the time-temperature transformation (TTT) diagrams, wh…
Entropy production fluctuations encode collective behavior in active matter
Trevor GrandPre, Katherine Klymko, Kranthi K. Mandadapu +1
We derive a general lower bound on distributions of entropy production in interacting active matter systems. The bound is tight in the limit that interparticle correlations are sma…
Transport phenomena in electrolyte solutions: Non-equilibrium thermodynamics and statistical mechanics
Kara D. Fong, Helen K. Bergstrom, Bryan D. McCloskey +1
The theory of transport phenomena in multicomponent electrolyte solutions is presented here through the integration of continuum mechanics, electromagnetism, and non-equilibrium th…
Motility-induced buckling and glassy dynamics regulate three-dimensional transitions of bacterial monolayers
Sho C. Takatori, Kranthi K. Mandadapu
Many mature bacterial colonies and biofilms are complex three-dimensional (3D) structures. One key step in their developmental program is a transition from a two-dimensional (2D) m…
