Integrated Experiment and Simulation Co-Design: A Key Infrastructure for Predictive Mesoscale Materials Modeling
Shailendra P. Joshi, Ashley Bucsek, Darren C. Pagan +10
The design of structural & functional materials for specialized applications is being fueled by rapid advancements in materials synthesis, characterization, manufacturing, with sop…
A tensor density measure of topological charge in three dimensional nematic phases
Cody D. Schimming, Jorge Viñals
A path independent measure in order parameter space is introduced such that, when integrated along any closed contour in a three dimensional nematic phase, it yields the topologica…
Kinematics and dynamics of disclination lines in three-dimensional nematics
Cody D. Schimming, Jorge Viñals
An exact kinematic law for the motion of disclination lines in nematic liquid crystals as a function of the tensor order parameter is derived. Unlike other order param…
Equilibrium morphology of tactoids in elastically anisotropic nematics
Cody D. Schimming, Jorge Viñals
We study two dimensional tactoids in nematic liquid crystals by using a -tensor representation. A bulk free energy of the Maier-Saupe form with eigenvalue constraints o…
The propagation of infection fronts in spatially distributed compartment models in epidemiology
Joseph Rudnick, David Jasnow, Jorge Vinals
Spatio-temporal extensions of familiar compartment models for disease transmission incorporating diffusive behavior, or interactions between individuals at separate locations, are…
Elasticity versus phase field driven motion in the phase field crystal model
Amit Acharya, Luiza Angheluta, Jorge Vinals
The inherent inconsistency in identifying the phase field in the phase field crystal Theory with the material mass and, simultaneously, with material distortion is discussed. In it…
