Description for Towards Autonomous Soft Matter Systems: Experiments on Membranes and Active Emulsions (Springer Theses)
Hardcover. This book describes results from minimal, biomimetic systems and primarily investigates membranes and active emulsions, as well as key aspects of both soft matter and non-equilibrium phenomena. Series: Springer Theses. Num Pages: 145 pages, 58 black & white illustrations, 26 colour illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: PHF; PHS; PHVN. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 15. Weight in Grams: 391.
This book focuses on the assembly, organization and resultant collective dynamics of soft matter systems maintained away from equilibrium by an energy flux. Living matter is the ultimate example of such systems, which are comprised of different constituents on very different scales (ions, nucleic acids, proteins, cells). The result of their diverse interactions, maintained using the energy from physiological processes, is a fantastically well-organized and dynamic whole. This work describes results from minimal, biomimetic systems and primarily investigates membranes and active emulsions, as well as key aspects of both soft matter and non-equilibrium phenomena. It is shown that these minimal ... Read more
