Getting into shape: how do rod-like bacteria control their geometry?
Ariel Amir, Sven van Teeffelen
Rod-like bacteria maintain their cylindrical shapes with remarkable precision during growth. However, they are also capable to adapt their shapes to external forces and constraints…
Vacancy diffusion in colloidal crystals as determined by dynamical density-functional theory and the phase-field-crystal model
Sven van Teeffelen, Cristian Vasile Achim, Hartmut Löwen
A two-dimensional crystal of repulsive dipolar particles is studied in the vicinity of its melting transition by using Brownian dynamics computer simulation, dynamical density func…
Brownian motion of a self-propelled particle
Borge ten Hagen, Sven van Teeffelen, Hartmut Löwen
Overdamped Brownian motion of a self-propelled particle is studied by solving the Langevin equation analytically. On top of translational and rotational diffusion, in the context o…
Non-Gaussian behaviour of a self-propelled particle on a substrate
Borge ten Hagen, Sven van Teeffelen, Hartmut Löwen
The overdamped Brownian motion of a self-propelled particle which is driven by a projected internal force is studied by solving the Langevin equation analytically. The "active" par…
Dynamics of a microorganism moving by chemotaxis in its own secretion
Ankush Sengupta, Sven van Teeffelen, Hartmut Löwen
The Brownian dynamics of a single microorganism coupled by chemotaxis to a diffusing concentration field which is secreted by the microorganism itself is studied by computer simula…
Derivation of the phase field crystal model for colloidal solidification
Sven van Teeffelen, Rainer Backofen, Axel Voigt +1
The phase-field crystal model is by now widely used in order to predict crystal nucleation and growth. For colloidal solidification with completely overdamped individual particle m…
