Active Solids Model: Rigid Body Motion and Shape-changing Mechanisms
Claudio Hernández-López, Paul Baconnier, Corentin Coulais +2
Active solids such as cell collectives, colloidal clusters, and active metamaterials exhibit diverse collective phenomena, ranging from rigid body motion to shape-changing mechanis…
Active vs. Passive Hard Disks Against a Membrane : Mechanical Pressure and Instability
G. Junot, G. Briand, R. Ledesma-Alonso +1
We experimentally study the mechanical pressure exerted by a set of respectively passive isotropic and self-propelled polar disks onto two different flexible unidimensional membran…
Crystallization of self-propelled hard-discs : a new scenario
G. Briand, O. Dauchot
We experimentally study the crystallization of a monolayer of vibrated discs with a built-in polar asymmetry, a model system of active liquids, and contrast it with that of vibrate…
