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…
