Stick-slip dynamics in an interleaved system with self-amplified friction
A. Plati, F. Restagno, C. Poulard
Understanding how stick-slip dynamics manifests in diverse physical conditions is a crucial topic in tribology. Although it has been extensively studied in simple frictional config…
Conservation laws and slow dynamics determine the universality class of interfaces in active matter
Raphaël Maire, Andrea Plati, Frank Smallenburg +1
While equilibrium interfaces display universal large-scale statistics, interfaces in phase-separated active and driven systems are predicted to belong to distinct non-equilibrium u…
Self-assembly of quasicrystals under cyclic shear
Raphaël Maire, Andrea Plati, Frank Smallenburg +1
We investigate the self-assembly of two-dimensional dodecagonal quasicrystals driven by cyclic shear, effectively replacing thermal fluctuations with plastic rearrangements. Using…
Dynamical and structural properties of an absorbing phase transition: a case study from granular systems
Raphael Maire, Andrea Plati, Frank Smallenburg +1
We investigate the dynamical and structural properties of absorbing phase transitions (APTs) within granular systems. Specifically, we examine a model for vibrofluidized systems of…
Enhanced Coalescence in Driven Foams
Alice Requier, Andrea Plati, Emmanuelle Rio +1
External driving leads to the emergence of unique phenomena and properties in soft matter systems. We show that driving quasi-2D foams by mechanical vibration results in significan…
Hyperuniform interfaces in non-equilibrium phase coexistence
Raphaël Maire, Leonardo Galliano, Andrea Plati +1
We show that long-wavelength interfacial fluctuations are strongly suppressed in non-equilibrium phase coexistence between bulk hyperuniform systems. Using simulations of three dis…
