Evolution of Physical Intelligence Across Scales
By following the evolution of physical intelligence across scales, this article shows how intelligence arises from materials, structures, physical interactions, and collectives. It establishes physical intelligence as the evolutionary foundation upon which embodied intelligence is built.

Self-organised flow structures in confined active nematics
Active matter is a class of materials, including many biological and biologically inspired systems, driven far from thermodynamic equilibrium by energy-injection at the particle level.

Active screws: Emergent active chiral nematics of spinning self-propelled rods
Several types of active agents self-propel by spinning around their propulsion axis, thus behaving as active screws. Examples include cytoskeletal filaments in gliding assays, magnetically driven colloidal helices, and microorganisms such as the ...

Dynamics of defects in an active nematic layer [PDF]
Defect dynamics in a thin active nematic layer is studied by asymptotic matching of solutions in the defect core and the far field. The analysis is facilitated by the correspondence between the two-dimensional nematic and complex scalar field models. Self-propulsion and topological interactions are identified as the primary drivers of the defect motion,

Dynamics of Ring Disclinations Driven by Active Nematic Shells
When dispersed in thermotropic nematic liquid crystal oils, surfactant-ladden aqueous droplets often lead to the formation of a equatorial ring disclination in the nearby nematic matrix as a result of a balance between elasticity and interfacial energy ...
