Morphology, Polarization Patterns, Compression, and Entropy Production in Phase-Separating Active Dumbbell Systems
Lucio Mauro Carenza, Claudio Basilio Caporusso, Pasquale Digregorio +3
Polar patterns and topological defects are ubiquitous in active matter. In this paper, we study a paradigmatic polar active dumbbell system through numerical simulations, to clarif…

Transverse Self-Propulsion Enhances the Aggregation of Active Dumbbells
Pasquale Digregorio, Daniela Moretti, Claudio Basilio Caporusso +5
We investigate a two-dimensional system of active Brownian dumbbells using molecular dynamics simulations. In this model, each dumbbell is driven by an active force oriented perpen…
