Nematic alignment of self-propelled particles: From particle to macroscopic dynamics

open access: yesMathematical Models and Methods in Applied Sciences, 2020
Starting from a particle model describing self-propelled particles interacting through nematic alignment, we derive a macroscopic model for the particle density and mean direction of motion. We first propose a mean-field kinetic model of the particle dynamics.

Rectification of self-propelled particles by symmetric barriers [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2013
The motion of self-propelled particles can be rectified by asymmetric or ratchet-like periodic patterns in space. Here we show that a non-zero average drift can already be induced in a periodic potential with symmetric barriers when the self-propulsion velocity is also symmetric and periodically modulated but phase-shifted against the potential. In the

The nonequilibrium glassy dynamics of self-propelled particles [PDF]

open access: yesSoft Matter, 2016
We study the glassy dynamics taking place in dense assemblies of athermal active particles that are driven solely by a nonequilibrium self-propulsion mechanism. Active forces are modeled as an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck stochastic process, characterized by a persistence time and an effective temperature, and particles interact via a Lennard-Jones potential ...

Aggregation Pattern Transitions by Slightly Varying the Attractive/Repulsive Function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Among collective behaviors of biological swarms and flocks, the attractive/repulsive (A/R) functional links between particles play an important role. By slightly changing the cutoff distance of the A/R function, a drastic transition between two distinct ...

Self-organization in systems of self-propelled particles [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2000
We investigate a discrete model consisting of self-propelled particles that obey simple interaction rules. We show that this model can self-organize and exhibit coherent localized solutions in one- and in two-dimensions.In one-dimension, the self-organized solution is a localized flock of finite extent in which the density abruptly drops to zero at the

Diffusion properties of active particles with directional reversal

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2016
The diffusion properties of self-propelled particles which move at constant speed and, in addition, reverse their direction of motion repeatedly are investigated.
