Directed collective motion of bacteria under channel confinement
Dense suspensions of swimming bacteria are known to exhibit collective behaviour arising from the interplay of steric and hydrodynamic interactions. Unconfined suspensions exhibit transient, recurring vortices and jets, whereas those confined in circular

Supramolecularly directed rotary motion in a photoresponsive receptor
Unidirectional rotation in a synthetic molecular motor is typically driven by intrinsic asymmetry or sequences of chemical transformations. Here, the authors control the direction of a molecule’s rotation through supramolecular binding of a chiral guest ...

Opponent processes in human motion perception: shear and compression sensitivity, induced motion and motion capture [PDF]
This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel University.Sensitivity to differential motion components, shearing and compressive (opposed) motion, was examined. The hypothesis that the visual system contains local

Two Structural Positions for Locative and Directional PPs in Norwegian Motion Constructions
This paper discusses two types of constructions in Norwegian where a combination of a verb of motion and a prepositional phrase are ambiguous between a reading of directed motion and a reading of located motion.

Motion detection and directional tuning
A random dot pattern was presented which made two jumps in various directions with a variable delay between them. The jumps occurred at the frame transitions of a 3-frame apparent motion sequence. The variation in detectability with the directional difference and the temporal separation of the jumps allows us to make inferences about directional tuning

Directional performance in motion transparency
Motion transparency provides a challenging test case for our understanding of how visual motion, and other attributes, are computed and represented in the brain. However, previous studies of visual transparency have used subjective criteria which do not confirm the existence of independent representations of the superimposed motions.

3D single cell migration driven by temporal correlation between oscillating force dipoles
Directional cell locomotion requires symmetry breaking between the front and rear of the cell. In some cells, symmetry breaking manifests itself in a directional flow of actin from the front to the rear of the cell.

Subgaussian concentration and rates of convergence in directed polymers [PDF]
We consider directed random polymers in (d+1) dimensions with nearly gamma i.i.d. disorder. We study the partition function ZN,ω and establish exponential concentration of log ZN,ω about its mean on the subgaussian scale √N/log N .

Molecular Dynamics Study of Collective Behavior of Carbon Nanotori in Columnar Phase
Supramolecular interaction of carbon nanotori in a columnar phase is described using the methods of classical molecular dynamics. The collective behavior and dynamic properties of toroidal molecules arising under the action of the van der Waals forces ...
