Remark on the Entropy Production of Adaptive Run-and-Tumble Chemotaxis
Minh D. N. Nguyen, Phuc H. Pham, Khang V. Ngo +3
Chemotactic active particles, such as bacteria and cells, exhibit an adaptive run-and-tumble motion, giving rise to complex emergent behaviors in response to external chemical fiel…
Inertial Spinner Swarm Experiments: Spin Pumping, Entropy Oscillations and Spin Frustration
Shengkai Li, Trung V. Phan, Gao Wang +3
We present here an inertial active spinning swarm consisting of mixtures of opposite handedness torque driven spinners floating on an air bed with low damping. Depending on the rel…
Gliders in shape-changing active matter
Akash Vardhan, Ram Avinery, Hridesh Kedia +3
We report in experiment and simulation the spontaneous formation of dynamically bound pairs of shape changing smarticle robots undergoing locally repulsive collisions. Borrowing te…
Locomotion without force, and impulse via dissipation: Robotic swimming in curved space via geometric phase
Shengkai Li, Tianyu Wang, Velin H. Kojouharov +5
Locomotion by shape changes (spermatozoon swimming, snake slithering, bird flapping) or gas expulsion (rocket firing) is assumed to require environmental interaction, due to conser…
Programming Active Cohesive Granular Matter with Mechanically Induced Phase Changes
Shengkai Li, Bahnisikha Dutta, Sarah Cannon +6
Active matter physics and swarm robotics have provided powerful tools for the study and control of ensembles driven by internal sources. At the macroscale, controlling swarms typic…
