Self-organized dynamics of a viscous drop with interfacial nematic activity

We study emergent dynamics in a viscous drop subject to interfacial nematic activity. Using hydrodynamic simulations, we show how the interplay of nematodynamics, activity-driven flows in the fluid bulk, and surface deformations gives rise to a sequence of self-organized behaviors of increasing comp...
