Advantages of Hopping on a Zig-zag Course
Lutz Schimansky-Geier, Udo Erdmann, Niko Komin
We investigate self-moving particles which prefer to hop with a certain turning angle equally distributed to the right or left. We assume this turning angle distribution to be give…
Active Brownian Particle and Random Walk Theories of the Motions of Zooplankton: Application to Experiments with Swarms of Daphnia
Udo Erdmann, Werner Ebeling, Lutz Schimansky-Geier +2
Active Brownian Particles are self-propelled particles that move in a dissipative medium subject to random forces, or noise . Additionally, they can be confined by an external fiel…
Macroscopic limit cycle via pure noise-induced phase transition
R. Kawai, X. Sailer, L. Schimansky-Geier +1
Bistability generated via a pure noise-induced phase transition is reexamined from the view of bifurcations in macroscopic cumulant dynamics. It allows an analytical study of the p…
A novel approach to synchronization in coupled excitable systems
B. Naundorf, T. Prager, L. Schimansky-Geier
We consider networks of coupled stochastic oscillators. When coupled we find strong collective oscillations, while each unit remains stochastic. In the limit (N\to \infty) we deriv…
Langevin equation approach to granular flows in narrow pipes
Tino Riethmueller, Lutz Schimansky-Geier, Dirk Rosenkranz +1
The flow of granular material through a rough narrow pipe is described by the Langevin equation formalism. The stochastic force is caused by irregular interaction between the wall…
