Droplet dynamics on patterned substrates
A. Dupuis,Julia M. Yeomans +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a lattice Boltzmann algorithm is used to explore the spreading of droplets on chemically and topologically patterned substrates, and it is shown that the final configuration of a drop on a substrate comprising hydrophobic and hydrophilic stripes can depend sensitively on the dynamical pathway by which the state is reached.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling the corrugation of the three-phase contact line perpendicular to a chemically striped substrate.
Francisco Ruiz-Cabello,Halim Kusumaatmaja,Miguel A. Rodríguez-Valverde,Julia M. Yeomans,M. A. Cabrerizo-Vílchez +4 more
TL;DR: A direct comparison of two popular numerical approaches to calculating drop shapes when applied to a nontrivial contact line problem is given, finding that the two methods give consistent results if they take into account a line tension in the free energy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Complex dynamics of knotted filaments in shear flow
TL;DR: In this paper, coarse-grained simulations are used to demonstrate that knotted filaments in shear flow at zero Reynolds number exhibit remarkably rich dynamic behaviour, and the interplay between shear forces and the flexibility of the filament leads to intricate regular and chaotic modes of motion that can be divided into distinct families.
Journal ArticleDOI
Active inter-cellular forces in collective cell motility
TL;DR: In this article, the collective behavior of confluent cell sheets is strongly influenced both by polar forces, arising through cytoskeletal propulsion, and by active intercellular forces, which are mediated by interactions across cell-cell junctions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydrodynamic of Active Liquid Crystals: A Hybrid Lattice Boltzmann Approach
TL;DR: In this article, the authors focus on the active nematic phase of active gels and study their hydrodynamics when confined in a slab of a finite height, using a hybrid lattice Boltzmann algorithm.
