The importance of being discrete -- An agent-based model for active nematics and more
Mathieu Dedenon, Carles Blanch-Mercader, Karsten Kruse +1
We propose an agent-based model of active flexible rods. Inspired by cytoskeletal flows, we introduce activity by an internal flow that contributes to the dissipative forces. The a…
