Virial stress in systems of active Brownian particles in the presence of translational and rotational inertia
Chandranshu Tiwari, Sunil P. Singh, Roland G. Winkler
We elucidate the stress in a system of active Brownian particles augmented with translational and rotational inertia (ABP+TRI). Stress tensors are derived for periodic systems as w…
Two-dimensional active polar semiflexible polymer under shear flow
A. Lamura, R. G. Winkler
The nonequilibrium structural and dynamical properties of semiflexible active polar polymers subject to linear flow are studied by numerical simulations. Filaments are confined in…
Analytical Analysis of the Conformational and Rheological Properties of Flexible Active Polar Linear Polymers under Shear Flow
Arindam Panda, Sunil P Singh, Roland G. Winkler
The conformational and rheological properties of active polar linear polymers (APLPs) under linear shear flow are studied analytically. We describe a discrete APLP as an inextensib…
Activity-enhanced shear thinning of flexible linear polar polymers
Arindam Panda, Roland G. Winkler, Sunil P. Singh
The rheological properties of tangentially propelled flexible polymers under linear shear flow are studied by computer simulations and are compared with analytical calculations. We…
