Sedimentation profiles and phase stacking diagrams in polydisperse hard rounded rectangle fluids
Tobias Eckert, Daniel de las Heras, Enrique Velasco +1
We analyze the sedimentation behavior of a polydisperse two-dimensional liquid-crystal fluid using a local density functional theory based on scaled particle theory. Polydispersity…

Defects in vibrated monolayers of equilateral triangular prisms
Jorge Vega, Enrique Velasco, Yuri Martinez-Raton
We present experimental results in which a quasimonolayer of grains, shaped as equilateral triangular prisms, is vertically vibrated within circular and square confining cavities.…

Cell theories for the chiral crystal phase of hard equilateral triangles
Yuri Martinez-Raton, Enrique Velasco
We derive several versions of the cell theory for a crystal phase of hard equilateral triangles. To that purpose we analytically calculated the free area of a frozen oriented or fr…
