Active motion of tangentially-driven polymers in periodic array of obstacles
Mohammad Fazelzadeh, Ehsan Irani, Zahra Mokhtari +1
We computationally investigate the active transport of tangentially-driven polymers with varying degrees of flexibility and activity in two-dimensional square lattices of obstacles…
Effects of inertia on conformation and dynamics of tangentially-driven active filaments
Mohammad Fazelzadeh, Ehsan Irani, Zahra Mokhtari +1
Active filament-like systems propelling along their backbone exist across the scales ranging from motor-driven bio-filaments to worms and robotic chains. In macroscopic active fila…
Spontaneous trail formation in populations of auto-chemotactic walkers
Zahra Mokhtari, Robert I. A. Patterson, Felix Höfling
We study the formation of trails in populations of self-propelled agents that make oriented deposits of pheromones and also sense such deposits to which they then respond with grad…
Dynamics of bacteria scanning a porous environment
Ehsan Irani, Zahra Mokhtari, Annette Zippelius
It has recently been reported that bacteria, such as E.coli and P. putida, perform distinct modes of motion when placed in porous media as compared to dilute regions or free space.…
