In-silico modeling of early-stage biofilm formation
Pin Nie, Francisco Alarcon Oseguera, Ivan Lopez-Montero +3
Several bacteria and bacteria strands form biofilms in different environmental conditions, e.g. pH, temperature, nutrients, etc. Biofilm growth, therefore, is an extremely robust p…

The stability phase diagram of active Brownian particles
Pin Nie, Joyjit Chattoraj, Antonio Piscitelli +3
Phase separation in a low-density gas-like phase and a high-density liquid-like one is a common trait of biological and synthetic self-propelling particles' systems. The competitio…

Frictional Active Brownian Particles
Pin Nie, Joyjit Chattoraj, Antonio Piscitelli +3
Frictional forces affect the rheology of hard-sphere colloids, at high shear rate. Here we demonstrate, via numerical simulations, that they also affect the dynamics of active Brow…
