Geodesic Trapping and Escape of Active Particles on Curved Surfaces
Yuzhu Chen, Vishal P. Patil, David Saintillan
Active particles on curved surfaces can become trapped along closed geodesics even without physical barriers. We show that escape from these geometric traps exposes a fundamental d…
Collective dynamics of active suspensions on curved viscous interfaces
Yuzhu Chen, Vishal P. Patil, David Saintillan
Self-propelled particles can navigate complex environments, including viscous fluid interfaces with curved geometries. In this work, we study the emergent dynamics of a suspension…
Collective action and entanglement of magnetically active liquid crystal elastomer ribbons
Asaf Dana, Christian Benson, Manivannan Sivaperuman Kalairaj +10
Interactions between active individuals in animal collectives lead to emergent responses that remain elusive in synthetic soft matter. Here, shape-morphing polymers are used to cre…
