Journal ArticleDOI

Topological defects in epithelia govern cell death and extrusion.

TL;DR: A mechanism for apoptotic cell extrusion is proposed: spontaneously formed topological defects in epithelia govern cell fate, and the ability to control extrusion hotspots by geometrically inducing defects through microcontact printing of patterned monolayers is demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Symmetry breaking in drop bouncing on curved surfaces.

TL;DR: It is shown that a drop impinging on Echevaria leaves exhibits asymmetric bouncing dynamics with distinct spreading and retraction along two perpendicular directions, which results from an asymmetric momentum and mass distribution that allows for preferential fluid pumping around the drop rim.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impalement of fakir drops

TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the transition between these two states, considering the drop size as a parameter for inducing this transition and find that a drop impales when it becomes small, which is interpreted by considering its curvature.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lattice Boltzmann simulations of contact line motion. I. Liquid-gas systems.

TL;DR: This work investigates the applicability of a mesoscale modeling approach, lattice Boltzmann simulations, to the problem of contact line motion in one and two component, two phase fluids and shows that the contact line singularity is overcome by evaporation or condensation near the contact lines.
Journal ArticleDOI

Steady-state hydrodynamic instabilities of active liquid crystals: hybrid lattice Boltzmann simulations.

TL;DR: In this paper, a hybrid lattice Boltzmann (HLB) simulation of the hydrodynamics of an active nematic liquid crystal sandwiched between confining walls with various anchoring conditions is presented.
