Journal ArticleDOI
Liquid morphologies on structured surfaces: from microchannels to microchips.
TL;DR: This work has shown that the bulge state can be used to construct channel networks that could be used as fluid microchips or microreactors, and represents a bifurcation between two different morphologies of constant mean curvature.
Journal ArticleDOI
The conformation of membranes
TL;DR: Understanding of many aspects of their conformational behaviour, such as the preferred shapes and shape transformations of closed vesicles, and the shape fluctuations, random-surface configurations, and adhesion and unbinding of interacting membranes, has been improved through fruitful interactions between theory and experiment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Shape transformations of vesicles: Phase diagram for spontaneous- curvature and bilayer-coupling models.
TL;DR: Vesicle shapes of low energy are studied for two variants of a continuum model for the bending energy of the bilayer, which lead to different predictions for typical trajectories, such as budding trajectories or oblate-stomatocyte transitions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tug-of-war as a cooperative mechanism for bidirectional cargo transport by molecular motors
TL;DR: A tug-of-war mechanism based on molecular motors that pull cargos along cytoskeletal filaments is found to be highly cooperative and to exhibit seven different motility regimes depending on the precise values of the single motor parameters.
