Sensitive dependence on molecular interactions of length scales in sheared soft matter by A. Scacchi, M. G. Mazza, A. J. Archer

“…The structure and degree of order in soft matter and other materials is intimately connected to the nature of the interactions between the particles. …”

Analogies between growing dense active matter and soft driven glasses by Elsen Tjhung, Ludovic Berthier

“…This analogy emerges because particle division at the microscale leads to a global expansion, which then plays a role analogous to shear flow in soft driven glasses. We conclude that growing dense active matter and sheared dense suspensions can generically be described by the same underlying physics.…”

Celebrating Soft Matter's 10th Anniversary: Cell division: a source of active stress in cellular monolayers. by Doostmohammadi, A, Thampi, S, Saw, T, Lim, C, Ladoux, B, Yeomans, J

Physiology of the widespread pulsating soft coral Xenia umbellata is affected by food sources, but not by water flow by C. E. L. Hill, S. G. Abbass, G. Caporale, Y. C. El‐Khaled, L. Kuhn, T. Schlenzig, C. Wild, A. Tilstra

“…Abstract Coral energy and nutrient acquisition strategies are complex and sensitive to environmental conditions such as water flow. While high water flow can enhance feeding in hard corals, knowledge about the effects of water flow on the feeding of soft corals, particularly those pulsating, is still limited. …”

Soft robotic patterning of liquids by Giacomo Sasso, Nicola Pugno, James J. C. Busfield, Federico Carpi

“…Abstract Patterning of two or more liquids, either homogeneous in each phase or mixed with particles (including biological matter, such as cells and proteins), by controlling their flow dynamics, is relevant to several applications. …”

A continuum mechanics constitutive framework for transverse isotropic soft tissues by Garcia-Gonzalez, D, Jerusalem, A, Garzon-Hernandez, S, Zaera, R, Arias, A

“…The proposed framework considers finite deformation kinematics, is thermodynamically consistent and allows for the particularisation of the energy potentials and flow equations of each constitutive branch. In this regard, the approach developed herein provides the basis on which specific constitutive models can be potentially formulated for a wide variety of soft tissues. …”
