Casimir effect in swimmer suspensions
C. Parra-Rojas, R. Soto
We show that the Casimir effect can emerge in microswimmer suspensions. In principle, two effects conspire against the development of Casimir effects in swimmer suspensions. First,…
Active temperature and velocity correlations produced by a swimmer suspension
C. Parra-Rojas, R. Soto
The agitation produced in a fluid by a suspension of micro-swimmers in the low Reynolds number limit is studied. In this limit, swimmers are modeled as force dipoles all with equal…
Statistical mechanics of fluidized granular media: short range velocity correlations
R. Soto, M. Mareschal
A statistical mechanical study of fluidized granular media is presented. Using a special energy injection mechanism, homogeneous fluidized stationary states are obtained. Molecular…
Nonlinear analysis of the shearing instability in granular gases
R. Soto, M. Mareschal, M. Malek Mansour
It is known that a finite-size homogeneous granular fluid develops an hydrodynamic-like instability when dissipation crosses a threshold value. This instability is analyzed in term…
Hydrodynamic theory for granular gases
Rosa Ramirez, Dino Risso, Rodrigo Soto +1
A granular gas subjected to a permanent injection of energy is described by means of hydrodynamic equations derived from a moment expansion method. The method uses as reference fun…
