An O (N) method is presented for calculation of hydrodynamic or electrostatic interactions
between N point particles in a confined geometry. This approach splits point forces or sources …

The recent emergence of B.1.1.529, the Omicron variant 1 , 2 , has raised concerns of
escape from protection by vaccines and therapeutic antibodies. A key test for potential …

Direct simulations of large populations of confined hydrodynamically interacting swimming
particles at low Reynolds number are performed. Hydrodynamic coupling between the …

Populations of swimming micro-organisms produce fluid motions that lead to dramatically
enhanced diffusion of tracer particles. Using simulations of suspensions of swimming particles …

A continuum theory is used to study ordering in liquid crystal nanodroplets. The free energy
functional that describes the system is minimized using an Euler–Lagrange approach and an …

Low Reynolds number direct simulations of large populations of hydrodynamically
interacting swimming particles confined between planar walls are performed. The results of …

Background Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) continues to
cause very high morbidity and mortality throughout Latin American countries. However, few …

Liquid-crystal blue phases (BPs) are highly ordered at two levels. Molecules exhibit
orientational order at nanometer length scales, while chirality leads to ordered arrays of double-…

Liquid crystals (LCs) can serve as sensitive reporters of interfacial events, and this property
has been used for sensing of synthetic or biological toxins. Here it is demonstrated that LCs …
