Title: Models for active matter and their applications to cell dynamics
Time: 2015-12-25, 11:00-12:00am
Venue: Room 316 of Environment Building, Renmin University
Abstract: Active matter systems are abundant in nature and man-made materials. I will discuss a general formalism for developing models for active matter systems, which is called the generalized Onsager principle. This formalism has been applied to developing many models for complex fluids systems in the past. Then, I will discuss the basic model prediction for a simple model in 2D flow geometries. Finally, I will discuss how to build models for the whole cell to simulate cell motility, migration on solid substrate and cell oscillations with a few numerical examples
