Determination of active forces in actomyosin systems as inverse source problems for the Stokes equation
Emily Klass, Tram Thi Ngoc Nguyen, Nilay Cicek +4
The identification of forces and stresses is a central task in biophysics research: Knowledge on forces is key to understanding dynamic processes in active biological systems that…
Dimensionality and confinement reshape competition in cellular renewing active matter
Patrick Zimmer, Philip Bittihn, Yoav G. Pollack
Cellular renewing active matter - assemblies of proliferating and apoptotic cells - underlies tissue homeostasis, morphogenesis, and clonal competition. Previous work in one-dimens…
Hackathons for biophysics education: simulating the cytoskeleton
Yoav G. Pollack, Komal Bhattacharyya, Anas Hussin +5
Hackathons are intensive innovation-oriented events where participants work in teams to solve problems or create projects in as little as 24 or 48 hours. These events are common in…
A minimal model of smoothly dividing disk-shaped cells
Lukas Hupe, Yoav G. Pollack, Jonas Isensee +3
Replication through cell division is one of the most fundamental processes of life and a major driver of dynamics in systems ranging from bacterial colonies to embryogenesis, tissu…
How Generic are the Robust Theoretical Aspects of Jamming in Hard Sphere Models?
Giorgio Parisi, Yoav G. Pollack, Itamar Procaccia +2
In very recent work the mean field theory of the jamming transition in infinite dimensional hard spheres models was presented. Surprisingly, this theory predicts quantitatively num…
Reply to Comment on `What Determines the Static Force Chains in Stressed Granular Media?'
Oleg Gendelman, Yoav G. Pollack, Itamar Procaccia +2
The formalism proposed in Phys. Rev. Lett. 116, 078001 (2016) for determination of the normal and tangential inter-particle forces in frictional disks from visual data was criticiz…
