It is intriguing but challenging to control the complex dynamics of topological defects that emerge in nonequilibrium spatiotemporal systems. Through an effective modelling this work explores a viable way to controllably vary the properties of persistent defect dynamics in self-propelled active smectics via the competition of activity and boundary confinements with different topology ... https://www.diegojavierfares.com/limited-time-Wet-Seat-Neoprene-Seat-Covers-Suits-Ford-Territory-SX-SY-Wagon-6-2004-4-2011-Black-limited-grab/
