Electric-field induced shape transition of nematic tactoids
Luuk Metselaar, Ivan Dozov, Krassimira Antonova +4
The occurrence of new textures of liquid crystals is an important factor in tuning their optical and photonics properties. Here, we show, both experimentally and by numerical compu…
Multi-scale statistics of turbulence motorized by active matter
Javier Urzay, Amin Doostmohammadi, Julia M. Yeomans
A number of micro-scale biological flows are characterized by spatio-temporal chaos. These include dense suspensions of swimming bacteria, microtubule bundles driven by motor prote…
Dancing disclinations in confined active nematics
Tyler N. Shendruk, Amin Doostmohammadi, Kristian Thijssen +1
The spontaneous emergence of collective flows is a generic property of active fluids and often leads to chaotic flow patterns characterised by swirls, jets, and topological disclin…
