Pair Formation in Insect Swarms Driven by Adaptive Long-Range Interactions
Dan Gorbonos, James G. Puckett, Kasper van der Vaart +3
In swarms of flying insects, the motions of individuals are largely uncoordinated with those of their neighbors, unlike the highly ordered motion of bird flocks. However, it has be…
Testing a thermodynamic approach to collective animal behavior in laboratory fish schools
Julia A. Giannini, James G. Puckett
Collective behaviors displayed by groups of social animals are observed frequently in nature. Understanding and predicting the behavior of complex biological systems is dependent o…
Similarities between Insect Swarms and Isothermal Globular Clusters
Dan Gorbonos, Kasper van der Vaart, Michael Sinhuber +4
Previous work has suggested that disordered swarms of flying insects can be well modeled as self-gravitating systems, as long as the "gravitational" interaction is adaptive. Motiva…
Collective gradient sensing in fish schools
James G. Puckett, Aawaz R. Pokhrel, Julia A. Giannini
Throughout the animal kingdom, animals frequently benefit from living in groups. Models of collective behaviour show that simple local interactions are sufficient to generate group…
Photoelastic force measurements in granular materials
Karen E. Daniels, Jonathan E. Kollmer, James G. Puckett
Photoelastic techniques are used to make both qualitative and quantitative measurements of the forces within idealized granular materials. The method is based on placing a birefrin…
Evolution of network architecture in a granular material under compression
Lia Papadopoulos, James Puckett, Karen E. Daniels +1
As a granular material is compressed, the particles and forces within the system arrange to form complex heterogeneous structures. Force chains are a prime example and are thought…
Long-range Acoustic Interactions in Insect Swarms: An Adaptive Gravity Model
Dan Gorbonos, Reuven Ianconescu, James G. Puckett +3
The collective motion of groups of animals emerges from the net effect of the interactions between individual members of the group. In many cases, such as birds, fish, or ungulates…
Trajectory entanglement in dense granular materials
James G. Puckett, Frédéric Lechenault, Karen E. Daniels +1
The particle-scale dynamics of granular materials have commonly been characterized by the self-diffusion coefficient . However, this measure discards the collective and topologi…
