Motor crosslinking augments elasticity in active nematics
Steven A. Redford, Jonathan Colen, Jordan L. Shivers +8
In active materials, uncoordinated internal stresses lead to emergent long-range flows. An understanding of how the behavior of active materials depends on mesoscopic (hydrodynamic…
Viscous tweezers: controlling particle orientation with viscosity
Tali Khain, Michel Fruchart, Vincenzo Vitelli
Control of particle motion is generally achieved by applying an external field that acts directly on each particle. Here, we propose a global way to manipulate the motion of a part…
Spiking at the edge
Colin Scheibner, Hillel Ori, Adam E. Cohen +1
Excitable media, ranging from bioelectric tissues and chemical oscillators to forest fires and competing populations, are nonlinear, spatially extended systems capable of spiking.…
Pattern formation by turbulent cascades
Xander M. de Wit, Michel Fruchart, Tali Khain +2
Fully developed turbulence is a universal and scale-invariant chaotic state characterized by an energy cascade from large to small scales where the cascade is eventually arrested b…
Measurement-Induced Phase Transitions in Informational Active Matter
Bryan VanSaders, Michel Fruchart, Vincenzo Vitelli
Various biological and synthetic media out of equilibrium can be viewed as many-ratchet systems that rectify environmental noise through local measurements and information processi…
Odd elasticity and topological waves in active surfaces
Michele Fossati, Colin Scheibner, Michel Fruchart +1
Odd elasticity encompasses active elastic systems whose stress-strain relationship is not compatible with a potential energy. As the requirement of energy conservation is lifted fr…
