We derive a mesoscopic modeling and simulation technique that is very close to the technique known as dissipative particle dynamics. The model is derived from molecular dynamics by means of a systematic coarse-graining procedure. Thus the…
Amorphous grain boundary complexions lack long-range crystalline order but are not featureless, as distinct gradients in structural short-range order have been reported through their thickness. In this work, we test the hypothesis that the…
We carry out numerical studies of static packings of frictionless superellipsoidal particles in three spatial dimensions. We consider more than $200$ different particle shapes by varying the three shape parameters that define…
The variance of the number of particles in a set is an important quantity in understanding the statistics of non-interacting fermionic systems in low dimensions. An exact map of their ground state in a harmonic trap in one and two…
We examine the structural and dynamic properties of confined binary hard-sphere mixtures designed to mimic realizable colloidal thin films. Using computer simulations, governed by either Newtonian or overdamped Langevin dynamics, together…
Directed growth, anisotropic cell shapes, and confinement drive self-organization in multicellular systems. We investigate the influence of particle shape on the distribution and dynamics of nematic microdomains in a minimal in-silico model…
We study the size-topology relations in random packings of dry adhesive polydisperse microspheres with Gaussian and lognormal size distributions through a geometric tessellation. We find that the dependence of the neighbour number on the…
We have performed particle-resolved direct numerical simulations of many heavy non-spherical particles settling under gravity in the dilute regime. The particles are oblate spheroids of aspect ratio 1.5 and density ratio 1.5. Two Galileo…
Recent studies show that volume fractions $\phiJ$ at the jamming transition of frictionless hard spheres and discs are not uniquely determined but exist over a continuous range. Motivated by this observation, we numerically investigate…
By considering Voronoi tessellations of the configurations of a fluid, we propose two new conserved fields, which provide structural information not fully accounted for by the usual 2-point density field fluctuations (structure factor). One…
We study the boundary of the liquid region $\mathcal{L}$ in large random lozenge tiling models defined by uniform random interlacing particle systems with general initial configuration, which lies on the line $(x,1)$, $x\in\mathbb{R}\equiv…
We show for the first time that collectively jammed disordered packings of three-dimensional monodisperse frictionless hard spheres can be produced and tuned using a novel numerical protocol with packing density $\phi$ as low as 0.6. This…
The rheology of dense granular shear flows is influenced by friction and particle shape. We investigate numerically the impact of non-spherical particle geometries under shear on packing fraction, stress ratios, velocity fluctuations, force…
Space-filling assemblies of athermal hydrophobic particles floating at an air-water interface, called particle rafts, are shown to undergo an unusual phase transition between two i.e., a low density `less-rigid and a high density…
The particle density distribution emerging from the solution of the Vlasov equation for relativistic, non-interacting particles with spherically symmetric initial conditions is shown to exhibit a shell-like structure for late fixed times in…
Jamming is a phenomenon shared by a wide variety of systems, such as granular materials, foams, and glasses in their high density regime. This has motivated the development of a theoretical framework capable of explaining many of their…
Quasi-continuous structural transformation from the crystalline to amorphous state takes place in graphite during ball-milling. The quantitative characteristics of a short- and a medium-range orders in carbon nanomaterials structure are…
Motivated by the recent observation of liquid glass in suspensions of ellipsoidal colloids, we examine the structure of (asymptotically) saturated RSA ellipse packings. We determine the packing fractions $\phi_{\rm s}(\alpha)$ to high…
In many applications to biophysics and environmental engineering, sedimentation of non-spherical particles for example: ellipsoids, is an important problem. In our work, we simulate the dynamics of oblate ellipsoids under gravity. We study…
We impose the uniform probability measure on the set of all discrete Gelfand-Tsetlin patterns of depth $n$ with the particles on row $n$ in deterministic positions. These systems equivalently describe a broad class of random tilings models,…
