Rheology of Active Fluids
An active fluid denotes a viscous suspension of particles, cells, or macromolecules able to convert chemical energy into mechanical work by generating stresses on the microscale. By virtue of this internal energy conversion, these systems display unusual macroscopic rheological signatures, including a curious transition to an apparent superfluid-like state where internal activity exactly compen...
متن کاملSynchronized Phase Systems
We present a distributed execution model for asynchronous systems with crash failures that we call Synchronized Phase System. As if they were in a synchronous system, in Synchronized Phase System, the processes try to run in synchronized rounds. More precisely, a Synchronized Phase System is a sequence of phases, and each phase is a sequence of synchronized rounds. The number of successive sync...
متن کاملAn Improved ISM Equation of State for Polar Fluids
We developed an equation of state (EOS) by Ihm, Song, and Mason (ISM) for polar fluids. The model consists of four parameters, namely, the second virial coefficient, an effective van der Waals co-volume, a scaling factor, and the reduced dipole moment. The second virial coefficient is calculated from a correlation that uses the heat of vaporization, and the liquid density at the normal boiling ...
متن کاملHydrodynamics of confined active fluids.
We theoretically describe the dynamics of swimmer populations in rigidly confined thin liquid films. We first demonstrate that hydrodynamic interactions between confined swimmers depend solely on their shape and are independent of their specific swimming mechanism. We also show that, due to friction with the nearby rigid walls, confined swimmers do not just reorient in flow gradients but also i...
متن کاملNoise-Dependent Stability of the Synchronized State in a Coupled System of Active Rotators
We consider a Kuramoto model for the dynamics of an excitable system consisting of two coupled active rotators. Depending on both the coupling strength and the noise, the two rotators can be in a synchronized or desynchronized state. The synchronized state of the system is most stable for intermediate noise intensity in the sense that the coupling strength required to desynchronize the system i...
