Driven Granular and Soft-matter : Fluctuation Relations, Flocking and Oscillatory Sedimentation
(2018-06-11)Active matter refers to systems driven out of thermal equilibrium by the uptake and dissipation of energy directly at the level of the individual constituents, which then undergo systematic movement in a direction decided ... -
Flocks, Flow and Fluctuations in Inanimate Matter : Simulations and Theory
In this thesis we study a novel soft-matter system that imitates motility. Our system consists of a few asymmetrically tapered brass rods and aluminium beads which are confined between two vertically shaking plates. The ...
