Structure Selection by Non-Conservative 3-Body Acoustic Interactions
Qinghao Mao, Heinrich M. Jaeger
Non-conservative multi-body interactions are typically associated with instabilities and activity in driven, field-mediated systems. Here we show that they can also promote stable…
Nonreciprocal multi-body interactions activate liquid state of acoustically levitated particle ensembles
Nina M. Brown, Heinrich M. Jaeger
Nonreciprocal forces are often a consequence of asymmetry in the properties of the interacting objects. However. even if all objects are identical and isotropic, and the pairwise i…
Irregular Metamaterial Networks
Thomas P. Wytock, Chiara Daraio, Heinrich M. Jaeger +4
Metamaterials can achieve exceptional functionality through careful engineering of their mesoscale structure. Although appropriately introduced irregularities can be advantageous,…
Dicovering the emergent nonlinear dynamics of acoustically levitated cube clusters
Annie Z. Xia, Melody X. Lim, Jason Z. Kim +2
The complex behavior of many natural and engineered systems emerges from the interaction of a small number of effective degrees of freedom. Discovering the physical basis of the in…
Non-reciprocity and multibody interactions in acoustically levitated particle systems: A three body problem
Brady Wu, Qinghao Mao, Bryan VanSaders +1
In active fluids and active solids the constituents individually generate movement by each extracting energy from their environment or from their own source. Non-reciprocal interac…
