Collective Dynamics in a Monolayer of Squirmers Confined to a Boundary by Gravity

Jan-Timm Kuhr, Felix Rühle, Holger Stark

We present a hydrodynamic study of a monolayer of squirmer model microswimmers confined to a boundary by strong gravity using the simulation method of multi-particle collision dyna…

Gravity-induced dynamics of a squirmer microswimmer in wall proximity

Felix Rühle, Johannes Blaschke, Jan-Timm Kuhr +1

We perform hydrodynamic simulations using the method of multi-particle collision dynamics and a theoretical analysis to study a single squirmer microswimmer at high Péclet number,…

Collective Sedimentation of Squirmers under Gravity

Jan-Timm Kuhr, Johannes Blaschke, Felix Rühle +1

Active particles, which interact hydrodynamically, display a remarkable variety of emergent collective phenomena. We use squirmers to model spherical microswimmers and explore the…

Frequency-Dependent Selection at Rough Expanding Fronts

Jan-Timm Kuhr, Holger Stark

Microbial colonies are experimental model systems for studying the colonization of new territory by biological species through range expansion. We study a generalization of the two…

Range Expansion with Mutation and Selection: Dynamical Phase Transition in a Two-Species Eden Model

Jan-Timm Kuhr, Madeleine Leisner, Erwin Frey

The colonization of unoccupied territory by invading species, known as range expansion, is a spatially heterogeneous non-equilibrium growth process. We introduce a two-species Eden…

Predictive Modeling of Non-Viral Gene Transfer

Gerlinde Schwake, Simon Youssef, Jan-Timm Kuhr +5

In non-viral gene delivery, the variance of transgenic expression stems from the low number of plasmids successfully transferred. Here, we experimentally determine Lipofectamine- a…
