Self-generated gradients stabilize the hydrodynamic instabilities in active suspensions
Mehrana R. Nejad, Ali Najafi
Ordered phases emerged in active suspensions of polar swimmers are under long-wavelength hydrodynamic mediated instabilities. In this letter, we show that chemical molecules dissol…

Long-wavelength instabilities in a system of interacting active particles
Zahra Fazli, Ali Najafi
Based on a microscopic model, we develop a continuum description for a suspension of microscopic self propelled particles. With this continuum description we study the role of long…

Phonon-Mediated Anomalous Dynamics of Defects
Ali Najafi, Ramin Golestanian
Dynamics of an array of line defects interacting with a background elastic medium is studied in the linear regime. It is shown that the inertial coupling between the defects and th…
