Detention times of microswimmers close to surfaces: Influence of hydrodynamic interactions and noise [PDF]
Phys. Rev. Lett. 115, 038101 (2015), 2014 After colliding with a surface, microswimmers reside there during the detention time. They accumulate and may form complex structures such as biofilms. We introduce a general framework to calculate the distribution of detention times using the method of first-passage times and study how rotational noise and hydrodynamic interactions influence the ...

Automated Allocation of Detention Rooms Based on Inverse Graph Partitioning [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Room allocation is a challenging task in detention centers since lots of related people need to be held separately with limited rooms. It is extremely difficult and risky to allocate rooms manually, especially for organized crime groups with close connections.

A fine balance of chemotactic and hydrodynamic torques: when microswimmers orbit a pillar just once [PDF]
Phys. Rev. E 100, 040601 (2019), 2019 We study the detention statistics of self-propelling droplet microswimmers attaching to microfluidic pillars. These droplets show negative autochemotaxis: they shed a persistent repulsive trail of spent fuel that biases them to detach from pillars of a certain size after orbiting them just once.
