Active Jamming: Self-propelled soft particles at high density [PDF]
, 2011 We study numerically the phases and dynamics of a dense collection of self-propelled particles with soft repulsive interactions in two dimensions. The model is motivated by recent in vitro experiments on confluent monolayers of migratory epithelial and ...

Asynchrony induces polarization in attraction-based models of collective motion [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2019 Animal groups frequently move in a highly organized manner, as represented by flocks of birds and schools of fish. Despite being an everyday occurrence, we do not fully understand how this works.

Rheological properties of a dilute suspension of self-propelled particles
, 2014 With a detail microscopic model for a self-propelled swimmer, we derive the rheological properties of a dilute suspension of such particles at small Peclet numbers.

Reinforcement learning of optimal active particle navigation
New Journal of Physics, 2022 The development of self-propelled particles at the micro- and the nanoscale has sparked a huge potential for future applications in active matter physics, microsurgery, and targeted drug delivery.

Sedimentation and polar order of active bottom-heavy particles [PDF]
, 2013 Self-propelled particles in an external gravitational field have been shown to display both an increased sedimentation length and polar order even without particle interactions.

Phase transitions in systems of self-propelled agents and related network models
, 2007 An important characteristic of flocks of birds, school of fish, and many similar assemblies of self-propelled particles is the emergence of states of collective order in which the particles move in the same direction. When noise is added into the system,

Metamachines of pluripotent colloids
Nature Communications, 2021 Mobile micromachines have the potential to probe and manipulate matter at small scales emulating the biological machinery of living organisms. Here, the authors take advantage of the anisotropy of self-propelled colloidal heterodimers to control ...
