Dicovering the emergent nonlinear dynamics of acoustically levitated cube clusters
Annie Z. Xia, Melody X. Lim, Jason Z. Kim +2
The complex behavior of many natural and engineered systems emerges from the interaction of a small number of effective degrees of freedom. Discovering the physical basis of the in…
Measurement-Induced Phase Transitions in Informational Active Matter
Bryan VanSaders, Michel Fruchart, Vincenzo Vitelli
Various biological and synthetic media out of equilibrium can be viewed as many-ratchet systems that rectify environmental noise through local measurements and information processi…
Non-reciprocity and multibody interactions in acoustically levitated particle systems: A three body problem
Brady Wu, Qinghao Mao, Bryan VanSaders +1
In active fluids and active solids the constituents individually generate movement by each extracting energy from their environment or from their own source. Non-reciprocal interac…
Tunable mechanical properties and air-based lubrication in an acoustically levitated granular material
Nina M. Brown, Bryan VanSaders, Jason M. Kronenfeld +2
Cohesive granular materials are found in many natural and industrial environments, but experimental platforms for exploring the innate mechanical properties of these materials are…
