Collective behavior of self-steering active particles with velocity alignment and visual perception

Rajendra Singh Negi, Roland G. Winkler, Gerhard Gompper

The formation and dynamics of swarms is wide spread in living systems, from bacterial bio-films to schools of fish and flocks of birds. We study this emergent collective behavior i…

Hydrodynamic pursuit by cognitive self-steering microswimmers

Segun Goh, Roland G. Winkler, Gerhard Gompper

The properties of biological microswimmers are to a large extent determined by fluid-mediated interactions, which govern their propulsion, perception of their surrounding, and the…

Noisy pursuit by a self-steering active particle in confinement

Marielle Gassner, Segun Goh, Gerhard Gompper +1

The properties of a cognitive, self-propelled, and self-steering particle in the presence of a stationary target are analyzed theoretically and by simulations. In particular, the e…

Phase separation of active Brownian particles on curved surfaces

Priyanka Iyer, Roland G. Winkler, Dmitry A. Fedosov +1

The effect of curvature on an ensemble of repulsive active Brownian particles (ABPs) moving on a spherical surface is studied. Surface curvature strongly affects the dynamics of AB…

Tangentially Driven Active Polar Linear Polymers -- An Analytical Study

Christian A. Philipps, Gerhard Gompper, Roland G. Winkler

The conformational and dynamical properties of isolated flexible active polar linear polymers (APLPs) are studied analytically. The APLPs are modeled as Gaussian bead-spring linear…

Dynamics of Active Polar Ring Polymers

Christian A. Philipps, Gerhard Gompper, Roland G. Winkler

The conformational and dynamical properties of isolated semiflexible active polar ring polymers are investigated analytically. A ring is modeled as continuous Gaussian polymer expo…
