Fully developed active turbulence defined through a non-equilibrium phase transition

Lasse Bonn, Tianxiang Ma, Olga Bantysh +7

Non-equilibrium systems challenge the standard definitions of phases and phase transitions from equilibrium statistical physics. For example, in active fluids continuous energy inj…

Cell division sets a universal flow geometry in cell layers

Tianxiang Ma, Lasse Bonn, Valeriia Grudtsyna +4

Collective flows in epithelial tissues contain a geometric backbone of vortical interfaces whose statistics exhibit hallmarks of critical percolation and conformal invariance. Yet…

Inverse design of self-folding 3D shells

Diogo E. P. Pinto, Nuno A. M. Araújo, Petr Šulc +1

Self-folding is an emerging paradigm for the inverse design of three-dimensional structures. While most efforts have concentrated on the shape of the net, our approach introduces a…

Optimal face-to-face coupling for fast self-folding kirigami

Maks Pecnik Bambic, Nuno A. M. Araújo, Benjamin J. Walker +4

Kirigami-inspired designs can enable self-folding three-dimensional materials from flat, two-dimensional sheets. Hierarchical designs of connected levels increase the diversity of…

Environmental Memory Boosts Group Formation of Clueless Individuals

Cristóvão S. Dias, Manish Trivedi, Giovanni Volpe +2

The formation of groups of interacting individuals improves performance and fitness in many decentralised systems, from micro-organisms to social insects, from robotic swarms to ar…

Continuum model for extraction and retention in porous media

André F. V. Matias, Daniel F. Valente-Matias, Nuno R. Neng +4

Several natural and industrial processes involve the extraction or retention of a solute by a fluid invading a network of channels. Examples include aquifer contamination, chemical…

Self-charging of identical grains in the absence of an external field

Ryuta Yoshimatsu, Nuno Araújo, Gerhard Wurm +2

We investigate the electrostatic charging of an agitated bed of identical grains using simulations, mathematical modeling, and experiments. We simulate charging with a discrete-ele…

Midair collisions enhance saltation

Marcus V. Carneiro, Nuno A. M. Araújo, Thomas Pähtz +1

Here we address the old question in Aeolian particle transport about the role of midair collisions. We find that, surprisingly, these collisions do enhance the overall flux substan…
