3D Anodic Alumina Nanoarchitectures: A Decade of Progress from Foundational Science to Functional Metamaterials

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Ordered three‐dimensional anodic aluminum oxide (3D‐AAO) nanoarchitectures with longitudinal and transverse pores enable architecture‐driven metamaterials. The review maps fabrication advances, including hybrid pulse anodization, and shows how 3D‐AAO templates tailor properties across magnetism, energy, catalysis, and sensing.

Kolmogorovian Active Turbulence of a Sparse Assembly of Interacting Marangoni Surfers

Physical Review X, 2020
Active matter, composed of self-propelled entities, forms a wide class of out-of-equilibrium systems that display striking collective behaviors, among which, the so-called active turbulence where spatially and time-disordered flow patterns spontaneously ...

Epidemic processes on self-propelled particles: Continuum and agent-based modeling

Physical Review Research, 2022
Most spreading processes require spatial proximity between agents. The stationary state of spreading dynamics in a population of mobile agents thus depends on the interplay between the time and length scales involved in the epidemic process and their ...

Rheological properties of a dilute suspension of self-propelled particles

, 2015
With a detailed microscopic model for a self-propelled swimmer, we derive the rheological properties of a dilute suspension of such particles at small Peclet number. It is shown that, in addition to Einstein's like contribution to the effective viscosity,

Mechanically Spatio‐Chimeric Fibrin Assembly Enables Vascular‐Integrated Muscle Reconstruction for Volumetric Muscle Loss Repair

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
SPARC (spatio‐chimeric, plasma‐based, anisotropic, and shear‐responsive construct) that integrates myogenic and vascular microenvironments within a single construct. The dual‐modulus matrix directs aligned myotube formation and endothelial network development, enabling a vascularized muscle implant that seamlessly anastomoses with host tissue and ...

Statistical physics of self-propelled particles [PDF]

The European Physical Journal Special Topics, 2015
Self-propelled particles (SPP) are a modern topic of interdisciplinary research at the frontier between physics and biology. These entities take up energy from their environment and convert (a part of) it into motion. This ability to move autonomously enables them to generate a new variety of singular properties and of collective dynamical behaviors ...
