A statistical-physics framework for translocation elastometry of deformable particles
Pierre Ronceray
A soft particle driven through a pore narrower than itself must deform to pass, and how quickly it does so is set by how hard it is to squeeze. We propose a mathematical framework…
Inferring the dynamics of underdamped stochastic systems
David B. Brückner, Pierre Ronceray, Chase P. Broedersz
Many complex systems, ranging from migrating cells to animal groups, exhibit stochastic dynamics described by the underdamped Langevin equation. Inferring such an equation of motio…
Topological defect engineering enables size and shape control in self-assembly
Lara Koehler, Markus Eder, Vincent Ouazan-Reboul +5
The self-assembly of complex structures from engineered subunits is a major goal of nanotechnology, but controlling their size becomes increasingly difficult in larger assemblies.…
Principled model selection for stochastic dynamics
Andonis Gerardos, Pierre Ronceray
Complex dynamical systems, from macromolecules to ecosystems, are often modeled by stochastic differential equations. To learn such models from data, a common approach involves spa…
Learning general pair interactions between self-propelled particles
Jérôme Hem, Alexis Poncet, Pierre Ronceray +2
Synthetic active matter systems, such as active colloids, often have complex interactions, which can be of hydrodynamic, chemical or electrostatic origin and cannot be computed fro…
