Journal ArticleDOI
Fluid vesicles in shear flow
TL;DR: A numerical scheme is presented which is capable of solving this flow problem for arbitrarily shaped vesicles using the Oseen tensor formalism and stationary shapes are found for a large range of parameters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vesicular instabilities: The prolate-to-oblate transition and other shape instabilities of fluid bilayer membranes

TL;DR: A method is exploited for calculating explicitly the stability of arbitrary axisymmetric shapes to map out in a numerically exact way both the stable phases and the metastability of the low-lying shape branches, allowing the full (shape) phase diagram and the full stability diagram to be constructed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Straightening of Thermal Fluctuations in Semiflexible Polymers by Applied Tension.
TL;DR: By generalizing the internal elasticity, this work shows that tense strings exhibit qualitatively different tension profiles and propagation with an exponent of 1/2, and finds sub-diffusive propagation with a dynamical exponent of1/4.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mesh Collapse in Two-Dimensional Elastic Networks under Compression
TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider two-dimensional triangular networks of beads connected by Hookean tethers under isotropic compression and determine both the compression and the shear modulus as a function of temperature and compression within simple approximations and by a Monte Carlo simulation.
