Collective dynamics of macroscopic photoactive matter under alternating excitation patterns
Sára Lévay, Axel Katona, Raúl Cruz Hidalgo +1
We present experiments on the collective dynamics of macroscopic photoactive self-propelled particles subjected to spatiotemporally varying excitation. The particles move within an…
Pressure dynamics in the bottleneck flow of self-propelled particles
N Colantuono, M Ramdan Ferressini, I Zuriguel +2
We present an experimental investigation of the pressure dynamics during the flow of self-propelled particles through narrow passages. When the ensemble is flowing, pressure fluctu…
Cluster dynamics in macroscopic photoactive particles
Sára Lévay, Axel Katona, Hartmut Löwen +2
We present an experimental study on the collective behavior of macroscopic self-propelled particles that are externally excited by light. This property allows testing the system re…
Single file motion of robot swarms
Laciel Alonso-Llanes, Angel Garcimartín, Iker Zuriguel
We present experimental results on the single file motion of a group of robots interacting with each other through position sensors. We successfully replicate the fundamental diagr…
Elongated particles discharged with a conveyor belt in a two-dimensional silo
Bo Fan, Iker Zuriguel, Joshua A. Dijksman +2
The flow of elliptical particles out of a 2-dimensional silo when extracted with a conveyor belt is analyzed experimentally. The conveyor belt - placed directly below the silo outl…
Steering self-organisation through confinement
Nuno A. M. Araújo, Liesbeth M. C. Janssen, Thomas Barois +26
Self-organisation is the spontaneous emergence of spatio-temporal structures and patterns from the interaction of smaller individual units. Examples are found across many scales in…
