The effects of ionic valency and size asymmetry on counterion adsorption
Or Ben Yaakov, Haim Diamant, Rudolf Podgornik +1
We study the effect of asymmetry in solvent and ionic size on the equilibrium properties of multivalent ionic solutions near a charged surface. For a single ionic species in soluti…
Pushing-Induced Arrest Across Lattices and Dimensions
Itamar Shitrit, Ofek Lauber Bonomo, Shlomi Reuveni
Tracer-media interactions can give rise to transport phenomena beyond classical models; e.g., obstacle pushing can eliminate percolation. We demonstrate that the existing "snowplow…
Collapse of a single polymer chain: Effects of chain stiffness and attraction range
Yanyan Zhu, Haim Diamant, David Andelman
Chain-like macromolecules in solution, whether biological or synthetic, transform from an extended conformation to a compact one when temperature or other system parameters change.…
Learning general pair interactions between self-propelled particles
Jérôme Hem, Alexis Poncet, Pierre Ronceray +2
Synthetic active matter systems, such as active colloids, often have complex interactions, which can be of hydrodynamic, chemical or electrostatic origin and cannot be computed fro…
Optical turbulence retrieval of heterogeneous media
Masaki Watabe, Joe Sakamoto, Hideaki Yoshimura +2
The transport of intensity equation (TIE) has revolutionized phase retrieval in optical microscopy, yet its application to complex media with absorption/scattering remains challeng…
Controlling Droplets at the Tips of Fibers
Mengfei He, Samay Hulikal, Marianna Marquardt +5
Many complex wetting behaviors of fibrous materials are rooted in the behaviors of individual droplets attached to pairs of fibers. Here, we study the splitting of a droplet held b…
Shape transitions of sedimenting confined droplets and capsules: from oblate to bullet-like geometries
Danilo P. F. Silva, Rodrigo C. V. Coelho, Ariel Dvir +4
The transport and deformation of confined droplets and flexible capsules are central to diverse phenomena and applications, from biological flows in microcapillaries to industrial…
MTLoc: A Confidence-Based Source-Free Domain Adaptation Approach For Indoor Localization
Negar Mehregan, Berk Bozkurt, Eric Granger +2
Various deep learning models have been developed for indoor localization based on radio-frequency identification (RFID) tags. However, they often require adaptation to ensure accur…
Diffusive dynamics of charge regulated macro-ion solutions
Bin Zheng, Shigeyuki Komura, David Andelman +1
Onsager's variational principle is generalized to address the diffusive dynamics of an electrolyte solution composed of charge-regulated macro-ions and counterions. The free energy…
Nontrivial Kron Reduction for Power Grid Dynamics Modeling
Laurent Pagnier, Robin Delabays, Melvyn Tyloo
The Kron reduction is used in power grid modeling when the analysis can -- supposedly -- be restricted to a subset of nodes. Typically, when one is interested in the phases' dynami…
A geometric condition for robot-swarm cohesion and cluster-flock transition
Mathias Casiulis, Eden Arbel, Charlotte van Waes +4
We present a geometric design rule for size-controlled clustering of self-propelled particles. We show that active particles that tend to rotate under an external force have an int…
Flow spatial structure determines pattern instabilities in nonlocal models of population dynamics
Nathan O. Silvano, João Valeriano, Emilio Hernández-García +2
We investigate how environmental flows influence spatial pattern formation and population dynamics using two nonlocal models of population dynamics, which we couple to two differen…
Fluids with power-law repulsion: Hyperuniformity and energy fluctuations
Haim Diamant, Erdal C. Oǧuz
We revisit the equilibrium statistical mechanics of a classical fluid of point-like particles with repulsive power-law pair interactions, focusing on density and energy fluctuation…
Consistent expansion of the Langevin propagator with application to entropy production
Benjamin Sorkin, Gil Ariel, Tomer Markovich
Stochastic thermodynamics is a developing theory for systems out of thermal equilibrium. It allows to formulate a wealth of nontrivial relations among thermodynamic quantities such…
Generative Bayesian modeling to nowcast the effective reproduction number from line list data with missing symptom onset dates
Adrian Lison, Sam Abbott, Jana Huisman +1
The time-varying effective reproduction number is a widely used indicator of transmission dynamics during infectious disease outbreaks. Timely estimates of can be obtai…
Generic elasticity of thermal, under-constrained systems
Cheng-Tai Lee, Matthias Merkel
Athermal (i.e. zero-temperature) under-constrained systems are typically floppy, but they can be rigidified by the application of external strain, which is theoretically well under…
Partition sum of thermal, under-constrained systems
Cheng-Tai Lee, Matthias Merkel
Athermal (i.e. zero-temperature) under-constrained systems are typically floppy, but they can be rigidified by the application of external strain. Following our recently developed…
A wrinkled cylindrical shell as a tunable locking material
Pan Dong, Mengfei He, Nathan C. Keim +1
A buckled sheet offers a reservoir of material that can be unfurled at a later time. For sufficiently thin yet stiff materials, this geometric process has a striking mechanical fea…
Interplay of gross and fine structures in strongly-curved sheets
Mengfei He, Vincent Démery, Joseph D. Paulsen
Although thin films are typically manufactured in planar sheets or rolls, they are often forced into three-dimensional shapes, producing a plethora of structures across multiple le…
Low probability states, data statistics, and entropy estimation
Damián G. Hernández, Ahmed Roman, Ilya Nemenman
A fundamental problem in analysis of complex systems is getting a reliable estimate of entropy of their probability distributions over the state space. This is difficult because un…
Soft Metamaterials: Adaptation and Intelligence
Colin Scheibner, Michel Fruchart, Vincenzo Vitelli
We provide a perspective on soft metamaterials and biomatter with a special emphasis on future research directions at the interface between material intelligence and adaptation.
Emergent Microrobotic Oscillators via Asymmetry-Induced Order
Jing Fan Yang, Thomas A. Berrueta, Allan M. Brooks +10
Spontaneous low-frequency oscillations on the order of several hertz are the drivers of many crucial processes in nature. From bacterial swimming to mammal gaits, the conversion of…
Propagating irreversibility fronts in cyclically-sheared suspensions
Jikai Wang, J. M. Schwarz, Joseph D. Paulsen
The interface separating a liquid from its vapor phase is diffuse: the composition varies continuously from one phase to the other over a finite length. Recent experiments on dynam…
Towards optimal point spread function design for resolving closely spaced emitters in three dimensions
James M. Jusuf, Matthew D. Lew
The past decade has brought many innovations in optical design for 3D super-resolution imaging of point-like emitters, but these methods often focus on single-emitter localization…
