Threat Evasion and Information Propagation in Cognitive Flocks
Priyanka Iyer, Cecilia Soroco, Gerhard Gompper
Information sharing, threat perception, and collective evasion highlight the advantages of swarm intelligence. Here, we study the behavior of flocks of cognitive agents, based on n…
Trypanosome motility in blood and particle suspensions
Florian A. Overberg, Marie Kater, Timothy Krüger +3
Motile microorganisms often navigate crowded and structurally complex environments, where surrounding obstacles can strongly influence locomotion. The bloodstream form of the flage…
Emergent Self-Organisation of Intelligent Active Particles
Priyanka Iyer, Segun Goh, Gerhard Gompper
Intelligent active particles are characterized by self-propulsion, directional sensing of their environment, information processing, decision making and goal-oriented self-steering…
Primary hemostasis and dynamics of clot formation after microvascular injury
Alper Topuz, Gerhard Gompper, Dmitry A. Fedosov
Primary hemostasis is initiated by platelet adhesion and aggregation at a site of vascular injury and is strongly regulated by local hydrodynamic conditions. At elevated shear rate…
Run-and-Tumble Escape in Pursuit-Evasion Dynamics of Intelligent Active Particles
Segun Goh, Dennis Haustein, Gerhard Gompper
The pursuit-evasion game is studied for two adversarial active agents, modelled as a deterministic self-steering pursuer and a stochastic, cognitive evader. The pursuer chases the…
Intelligent Soft Matter: Towards Embodied Intelligence
Vladimir A. Baulin, Achille Giacometti, Dmitry Fedosov +24
Intelligent soft matter stands at the intersection of materials science, physics, and cognitive science, promising to change how we design and interact with materials. This transfo…
The 2024 Motile Active Matter Roadmap
Gerhard Gompper, Howard A. Stone, Christina Kurzthaler +29
Activity and autonomous motion are fundamental aspects of many living and engineering systems. Here, the scale of biological agents covers a wide range, from nanomotors, cytoskelet…
Viscotaxis of Beating Flagella at Surfaces
Shubham Anand, Jens Elgeti, Gerhard Gompper
Many biological microorganisms and artificial microswimmers react to external cues of environmental gradients by changing their swimming directions. We study here the behavior of e…
Rheological properties of sheared vesicle and cell suspensions
A. Lamura, G. Gompper
Numerical simulations of vesicle suspensions are performed in two dimensions to study their dynamical and rheological properties. An hybrid method is adopted, which combines a meso…
Simple and complex micelles in amphiphilic mixtures: a coarse-grained mean-field study
M. J. Greenall, G. Gompper
Binary mixtures of amphiphiles in solution can self-assemble into a wide range of structures when the two species individually form aggregates of different curvatures. In this pape…
Effects of an embedding bulk fluid on phase separation dynamics in a thin liquid film
Sanoop Ramachandran, Shigeyuki Komura, Gerhard Gompper
Using dissipative particle dynamics simulations, we study the effects of an embedding bulk fluid on the phase separation dynamics in a thin planar liquid film. The domain growth ex…
Dynamics of Fluid Vesicles in Flow through Structured Microchannels
Hiroshi Noguchi, Gerhard Gompper, Lothar Schmid +2
The dynamics of fluid vesicles is studied under flow in microchannels, in which the width varies periodically along the channel. Three types of flow instabilities of prolate vesicl…
Multi-particle-collision dynamics: Flow around a circular and a square cylinder
A. Lamura, G. Gompper, T. Ihle +1
A particle-based model for mesoscopic fluid dynamics is used to simulate steady and unsteady flows around a circular and a square cylinder in a two-dimensional channel for a range…
Stability of inverse bicontinuous cubic phases in lipid-water mixtures
U. S. Schwarz, G. Gompper
We investigate the stability of seven inverse bicontinuous cubic phases (, , , , , , ) in lipid-water mixtures based on a curvature model of membranes…
