Mechanism of self-propulsion in 3D-printed active granular particles

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2016
Active granular particles can harness unbiased mechanical vibrations in the environment to generate directed motion. We provide a theoretical framework that connects the geometrical shape of a three dimensional object to its self-propulsion ...

Defect interactions in the non-reciprocal Cahn–Hilliard model

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics
We present a computational study of the pairwise interactions between defects in the recently introduced non-reciprocal Cahn–Hilliard model. The evolution of a defect pair exhibits dependence upon their corresponding topological charges, initial ...

Run-and-tumble-like motion of active colloids in viscoelastic media

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2018
Run-and-tumble motion is a prominent locomotion strategy employed by many living microorganisms. It is characterized by straight swimming intervals (runs), which are interrupted by sudden reorientation events (tumbles).

Flagellar dynamics of chains of active Janus particles fueled by an AC electric field

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2018
We study the active dynamics of self-propelled asymmetrical colloidal particles (Janus particles) fueled by an AC electric field. Both the speed and direction of the self-propulsion, and the strength of the attractive interaction between particles can be

Mean first passage time of active Brownian particles in two dimensions

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics
The mean first passage time (MFPT) is a key metric for understanding transport, search, and escape processes in stochastic systems. While well characterized for passive Brownian particles, its behavior in active systems—such as active Brownian particles (
