We conduct a systematic exploration of the energy landscape of vesicle morphologies within
the framework of the Helfrich model. Vesicle shapes are determined by minimizing the …

Guiding and dynamically modulating topological defects are critical challenges in defect
engineering of liquid crystals. Here, we employ molecular dynamics simulations to …

This chapter explores recent advances in colloid and interfacial phenomena involving liquid
crystals (LCs). In comparison to studies of colloids and interfaces with isotropic solvents, the …
