Phase coherence and disorder-induced wave propagation in micromotor arrays
Romane Braun, Alexis Poncet, Alexandre Morin +1
Machines are designed, assembled, and programmed to convert power into predetermined dynamics and functions. In contrast, living systems such as interacting cells and animal groups…
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…
Melting of non reciprocal solids: how dislocations propel and fission in flowing crystals
Stéphane Guillet, Alexis Poncet, Marine Le Blay +3
When soft matter is driven out of equilibrium its constituents interact via effective interactions that escape Newton's action-reaction principle. Prominent examples include the hy…
Interpreting neural operators: how nonlinear waves propagate in non-reciprocal solids
Jonathan Colen, Alexis Poncet, Denis Bartolo +1
We present a data-driven pipeline for model building that combines interpretable machine learning, hydrodynamic theories, and microscopic models. The goal is to uncover the underly…
Active hydraulics laws from frustration principles
Camille Jorge, Amélie Chardac, Alexis Poncet +1
Viscous flows are laminar and deterministic. Robust linear laws accurately predict their streamlines in structures as complex as blood vessels, porous media and pipe networks. Howe…
When soft crystals defy Newton's third law: Non-reciprocal mechanics and dislocation motility
Alexis Poncet, Denis Bartolo
The effective interactions between the constituents of driven soft matter generically defy Newton's third law. Combining theory and numerical simulations, we establish that six cla…
Motile dislocations knead odd crystals into whorls
Ephraim S. Bililign, Florencio Balboa Usabiaga, Yehuda A. Ganan +6
The competition between thermal fluctuations and potential forces is the foundation of our understanding of phase transitions and matter in equilibrium. Driving matter out of equil…
