Submersed Micropatterned Structures Control Active Nematic Flow, Topology and Concentration
Kristian Thijssen, Dimitrius Khaladj, S. Ali Aghvami +5
Coupling between flows and material properties imbues rheological matter with its wide-ranging applicability, hence the excitement for harnessing the rheology of active fluids for…
Driven Topological Transitions in Active Nematic Films
David P. Rivas, Tyler N. Shendruk, Robert R. Henry +2
The topological properties of many materials are central to their behavior, with the dynamics of topological defects being particularly important to intrinsically out-of-equilibriu…
Twist-induced crossover from 2D to 3D turbulence in active nematics
Tyler N. Shendruk, Kristian Thijssen, Julia M. Yeomans +1
While studies of active nematics in two dimensions have shed light on various aspects of the flow regimes and topology of active matter, three-dimensional properties of topological…
Biopolymer dynamics driven by helical flagella
Andrew Kaan Balin, Andreas Zöttl, Julia M. Yeomans +1
Microbial flagellates typically inhabit complex suspensions of polymeric material which can impact the swimming speed of motile microbes, filter-feeding of sessile cells, and the g…
Rotation-induced macromolecular spooling of DNA
Tyler N. Shendruk, David Sean, Daniel J. Berard +5
Genetic information is stored in a linear sequence of base-pairs; however, thermal fluctuations and complex DNA conformations such as folds and loops make it challenging to order g…
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…
