Entangled networks of stiff biopolymers exhibit complex dynamic response, emerging from the topological constraints that neighboring filaments impose upon each other. We propose a class of reference models for entanglement dynamics of stiff…
We investigate how the competing presence of a nonuniform motility landscape and an external confining field affects the properties of active particles. We employ the active Ornstein-Uhlenbeck particle (AOUP) model with a periodic swim…
A recently introduced particle-based model for fluid dynamics with effective excluded volume interactions is analyzed in detail. The interactions are modeled by means of stochastic multiparticle collisions which are biased and depend on…
We propose a generic model for thin films and shallow drops of a polar active liquid that have a free surface and are in contact with a solid substrate. The model couples evolution equations for the film height and the local polarization…
We develop a first-principles-based generalized mode-coupling theory (GMCT) for the tagged-particle motion of glassy systems. This theory establishes a hierarchy of coupled integro-differential equations for self-multi-point density…
The present study deals with the numerical as well as asymptotic analysis of the electrohydrodynamic interaction between two deformable droplets in a confined shear flow. Considering both the phases as leaky dielectric, we have performed…
Optical tweezers setup is often used to probe the motion of individual tracer particle, which promotes the study of relaxation dynamics of a generic process confined in a harmonic potential. We uncover the dependence of ensemble- and…
Thermocapillary motion is widespread in both natural and engineering applications. A tiny drop of one liquid, suspended within another, may be set into motion aligned with an imposed thermal gradient, as influenced by thermocapillary action…
Low Reynolds number direct simulations of large populations of hydrodynamically interacting swimming particles confined between planar walls are performed. The results of simulations are compared with a theory that describes dilute…
We report, for the first time, some experimental observations regarding a new type of long range interaction between rigid particles that prevails when they are suspended in an soft elastic gel. A denser particle submerges itself to a…
In recent years, manipulation of particles by inertial microfluidics has attracted significant attention. Most studies focused on inertial focusing of particles suspended within liquid phase, in which the ratio of the density of the…
Light transport in periodic waveguides coupled to a two-level atom is investigated. By using optical Bloch equations and a photonic modal formalism, we derive semi-analytical expressions for the scattering matrix of one atom trapped in a…
Perturbations of fluid media can give rise to non-equilibrium dynamics, which may in turn cause motion of immersed inclusions. We consider perturbations ("activations") that are local in space and time, of a fluid density which is…
Marangoni self-contracted droplets are formed by a mixture of two liquids, one of larger surface tension and larger evaporation rate than the other. Due to evaporation, the droplets contract to a stable contact angle instead of spreading on…
We analyze the diffraction regime of the Kapitza-Dirac effect for particles entangled in momentum. The detection patterns show two-particle interferences. In the single-mode case we identify a discontinuity in the set of joint detection…
Impurity motion in one dimensional ultra cold quantum liquids confined in an optical trap has attracted much interest recently. As a step towards its full understanding, we construct a generating functional from which we derive the position…
We study active agents embedded in bulk or in confinement explicitly considering hydrodynamics and simulating the swimmers via an implementation inspired by the squirmer model. We develop a Dissipative Particle Dynamics scheme for the…
We carry out numerical evaluations of the motion of classical particles in Minkowski Space $\mathbb{M}^{4}$ which are confined to the inside of a bag. In particular, we analyze the structure of the paths evolving from the breaking of the…
An analytical method is proposed for computing the low-Reynolds-number hydrodynamic mobility function of a small colloidal particle asymmetrically moving inside a large spherical elastic cavity, the membrane of which is endowed with…
We use Stokesian Dynamics simulations to study the microscopic motion of particles suspended in fluids passing through porous media. We construct model porous media with fixed spherical particles, and allow mobile ones to move through this…
