Overload wave-memory induces amnesia of a self-propelled particle
Maxime Hubert, Stéphane Perrard, Nicolas Vandewalle +1
Information storage is a key element of autonomous, out-of-equilibrium dynamics, especially for biological and synthetic active matter. In synthetic active matter however, the impl…
Magnetically powered metachronal waves induce locomotion in self-assemblies
Ylona Collard, Galien Grosjean, Nicolas Vandewalle
When tiny soft ferromagnetic particles are placed along a liquid interface and exposed to a vertical magnetic field, the balance between capillary attraction and magnetic repulsion…
Regimes of motion of magnetocapillary swimmers
Alexander Sukhov, Maxime Hubert, Galien Grosjean +6
The dynamics of a triangular magnetocapillary swimmer is studied using the lattice Boltzmann method. Performing extensive numerical simulations taking into account the coupled dyna…
A general perturbative approach for bead-based microswimmers reveals rich self-propulsion phenomena
Sebastian Ziegler, Maxime Hubert, Nicolas Vandewalle +2
Studies of model microswimmers have significantly contributed to the understanding of the principles of self-propulsion we have today. However, only a small number of microswimmer…
Capillary assemblies in a rotating magnetic field
Galien Grosjean, Maxime Hubert, Ylona Collard +4
Small objects floating on a fluid have a tendency to aggregate due to capillary forces. This effect has been used, with the help of a magnetic induction field, to assemble submilli…
Bragg's reflection for walking droplets in 1D crystals
Nicolas Vandewalle, Boris Filoux, Maxime Hubert
A walking droplet possesses fascinating properties due to its peculiar wave/particle interaction. The self-propelling motion of such a droplet is driven by the Faraday instability…
