Collective dynamics of dipolar self-propelled particles

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2023
We present a numerical study of the collective behavior of self-propelled particles for which dipolar interactions are considered. These are obtained by introducing pointlike magnetic dipoles in the particles. Various dynamical regimes are found depending on three major parameters: the density of particles, the ratio Γ defined as the competition ...

Self-Propelled Janus Particles

open access: yes, 2021
Design and operation of Janus particles have a great potential for applications in fields such as environmental remediation, electronic engineering, bio-imaging, bio-sensing, drug delivery and other biomedical tasks. Current research aims to imitate the molecular motors of biological systems by creating micro- and nano-scale particles which can exploit

Time-dependent inertia of self-propelled particles: The Langevin rocket

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2021
Many self-propelled objects are large enough to exhibit inertial effects but still suffer from environmental fluctuations. The corresponding basic equations of motion are governed by active Langevin dynamics, which involve inertia, friction, and ...

Collective Behavior of Self-propelled Particles in the presence of moving obstacles

open access: yesMaterials Today: Proceedings, 2017
The concept of self-propelled particles are widely used to various applications of bio nanotechnology, thus by exploiting this strategy they can be further designed as a strategy to enhance target specific drug delivery. Self-propelled particles can show

Motion of a self-propelled particle with rotational inertia

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics, 2022
Generalized analytical equations for the mean kinetic energy, mean-square displacement and noise-averaged trajectory of a self-propelled particle with both translational and rotational inertia and velocity fluctuations are proposed.

Swimming and Swarming of Self-Propelled Particles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
A number of micro-organisms and cells, such as sperm and some spieces of roundworms (nematodes), employ a sinusoidal beating motion of their rod-like body to swim though a fluid medium. For the motion of these microscopic swimmers, the viscosity is dominating and the inertia is negligible.

Deformable self-propelled particles with a global coupling

Chaos: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Nonlinear Science, 2010
We have proposed a model of deformable self-propelled particles in which the time-evolution equations are given in terms of the center-of-mass velocity and a nematic order parameter representing the motion-induced deformation [T. Ohta and T. Ohkuma, Phys. Rev. Lett. 102, 154101 (2009)].
