Segregation dynamics in active-passive mixtures of semiflexible filaments
Chitrak Bhowmik, Aparna Baskaran, Sriram Ramaswamy
We study the segregation of motile semiflexible filaments from a background of similar but non-motile filaments. Our Langevin dynamics simulations reveal a wide range of emergent s…
Coarsening of biomimetic condensates in a self-stirring active fluid
Jeremy Laprade, Layne Frechette, Christopher Amey +4
Coarsening, the process where larger structures grow at the expense of smaller ones, is a fundamental aspect of multiphase systems. The cell cytoplasm exemplifies an out-of-equilib…
The mechanics of disclination emergence in 3D active nematics
Yingyou Ma, Christopher Amey, Aparna Baskaran +1
The spontaneous creation of disclinations is a defining characteristic of active nematics, which is rarely observed in equilibrium systems or other active matter systems. Thus, und…
