Surfing, sweeping, and assembly of particles by a moving liquid crystal phase boundary
Tom Shneer, Jocelyn Ochoa, Alauna C. Wheeler +5
Non-equilibrium transport of particles embedded in a liquid crystal host can, by cooling through a phase transition, be exploited to create a remarkable variety of structures inclu…

Effect of confinement on the mechanics of a swelling hydrogel bead
Chaitanya Joshi, Mathew Q. Giso, Jean-François Louf +2
We recast the problem of hydrogel swelling under physical constraints as an energy optimization problem. We apply this approach to compute equilibrium shapes of hydrogel spheres co…
