Topological structure and dynamics of three dimensional active nematics
Guillaume Duclos, Raymond Adkins, Debarghya Banerjee +13
Point-like motile topological defects control the universal dynamics of diverse two-dimensional active nematics ranging from shaken granular rods to cellular monolayers. A comparab…
Conformational switching of chiral colloidal rafts regulates raft-raft attractions and repulsions
Joia Miller, Chaitanya Joshi, Prerna Sharma +4
Membrane-mediated particle interactions depend both on the properties of the particles themselves and the membrane environment in which they are suspended. Experiments have shown t…
Insensitivity of active nematic dynamics to topological constraints
Michael M. Norton, Arvind Baskaran, Achini Opathalage +4
Confining a liquid crystal imposes topological constraints on the orientational order, allowing global control of equilibrium systems by manipulation of anchoring boundary conditio…
Instabilities, defects, and defect ordering in an overdamped active nematic
Elias Putzig, Gabriel S. Redner, Arvind Baskaran +1
We consider a phenomenological continuum theory for an extensile, overdamped active nematic liquid crystal, applicable in the dense regime. Constructed from general principles, the…
