Mechanical stability of particle-stabilized droplets under micropipette aspiration
Niveditha Samudrala, Jin Nam, Raphael Sarfati +2
We investigate the mechanical behavior of particle-stabilized droplets using micropipette aspiration. We observe that droplets stabilized with amphiphilic dumbbell-shaped particles…
Tracking Particles with Large Displacements using Energy Minimization
Rostislav Boltyanskiy, Jason W. Merrill, Eric R. Dufresne
We describe a method to track particles undergoing large displacements. Starting with a list of particle positions sampled at different time points, we assign particle identities b…
Maximum likelihood estimations of force and mobility from short single Brownian trajectories
Raphael Sarfati, Jerzy Blawzdziewicz, Eric R. Dufresne
We describe a method to extract force and diffusion parameters from single trajectories of Brownian particles based on the principle of maximum likelihood. The analysis is well-sui…
Elastocapillarity: Surface Tension and the Mechanics of Soft Solids
Robert W. Style, Anand Jagota, C. -Y. Hui +1
It is widely appreciated that surface tension can dominate the behavior of liquids at small scales. Solids also have surface stresses of a similar magnitude, but they are usually o…
Long-range attraction of particles adhered to lipid vesicles
Raphael Sarfati, Eric R. Dufresne
Many biological systems fold thin sheets of lipid membrane into complex three-dimensional structures. This microscopic origami is often mediated by the adsorption and self-assembly…
