| dc.description.abstract | There has been much interest in the glassy dynamics of living systems at the scales
of subcellular structures, cells and tissues. This has motivated theoretical studies on
the approach to glassy behaviour in dense systems driven by activity, opening up new
questions, both in the physics of glass transitions and in active matter. A key issue is
whether active glasses are akin to passive ones with an effective temperature or whether
they are fundamentally different. In this thesis we address some of these issues using a
variety of simulation and analytical techniques. | en_US |
