Figure 1

Contour plots of \({{\phi }}\) at varying activity and shear rate. Top and bottom row correspond to the case at shear rate \({\dot{\gamma }}=0.78 \times 10^{-4}, 7.1 \times 10^{-4}\) respectively. Left panels correspond to the passive limit (\(\zeta =0\)), while middle and right columns show the configuration for two cases at intermediate (\(\zeta =-0.001\)) and strong (\(\zeta =-0.005\)) contractile activity. The color range of the contour plot, shown in (a), is the same for all figures and is defined as follows: red-yellow (active phase) if \(\phi >1\), dark blue-blue (passive phase) if \(\phi <1\).
