Variational formulation of active nematic fluids: theory and simulation

The structure and dynamics of important biological quasi-two-dimensional systems, ranging from cytoskeletal gels to tissues, are controlled by nematic order, flow, defects and activity. Continuum hydrodynamic descriptions combined with numerical simulations have been used to understand such complex...
