Séminaire PMMH - Sara Jabbari Farouji (Gutenberg University, Mainz, Germany)
Controlling stability and transport of magnetic microswimmers by an external field
Inspired by intriguing dynamics of magnetotactic bacteria, we present a minimal kinetic model for magnetic swimmers in an external magnetic field to investigate their collective behavior. Our kinetic model couples a Fokker-Planck equation for active particles in an external magnetic field to the Stokes flow.
Combining linear stability analysis and nonlinear 3D continuum simulations, we investigate the hydrodynamic stability and transport of magnetic swimmers as a function of activity and magnetic field strengths. We show that at sufficiently high activity and moderate magnetic field strengths, a homogeneous polar steady state is unstable and distinct types of splay and bend instabilities for puller and pusher swimmers emerge. Pushers form wave-like structures perpendicular to the field while pullers form wave-like lanes along the field. These instabilities arise from the amplification of anisotropic hydrodynamic interactions in the external alignment and lead to a partial depolarization and a reduction of the average transport speed of the swimmers in the field direction. Interestingly, at higher field strengths the homogeneous polar state becomes stable and a transport efficiency identical to that of active particles without hydrodynamic interactions is restored. We discuss our results in relation to the experimental findings.

Metainterfaces : how to design a rough contact that obeys a specific friction law ?
Many devices, including touchscreens and robotic hands, involve frictional contacts. Optimizing those devices requires fine control of the interface's friction law. We lack systematic methods to create dry contact interfaces whose frictional behaviour satisfies preset specifications. In this seminar, I will present (…) -

REPROGRAMMABLE HARDWARE FOR DATA PROCESSING AT THE EDGE : A NEW COMPUTING PARADIGM BASED ON NEUROMORPHIC SYSTEMS
The brain's ability to perform efficient and fault-tolerant data processing is strongly related with its peculiar interconnected adaptive architecture, based on redundant neural circuits interacting at different scales. By emulating the brain's processing and learning mechanisms, computing technologies strive to (…) -

Continuum Mechanics of Hydrated Fibre-Reinforced Soft Tissues
Biological tissues can be represented as bi-phasic continua, with a porous solid phase saturated by an interstitial fluid and reinforced by collagen fibers. This lecture will give an overview of the modelling techniques for fibre-reinforced porous composite materials with statistical orientation of the fibers. Both (…) -

Instructions générales pour les conférenciers
Le public du séminaire est très hétérogène (rien qu’au PMMH nous travaillons sur des thématiques très diverses, mécanique des fluides, des milieux granulaires, des solides, physique statistique, physique du mouillage, micro-fluidique, biophysique,...) l’objectif est donc de ne pas faire un séminaire trop spécialiste : au moins la première moitié du séminaire à un niveau accessible pour celui qui ne connaît rien sur le sujet.
Le séminaire a lieu à 11h. rendez-vous 15 minutes avant pour installer et tester la projection.
Le séminaire dure environ 45 minutes pour laisser un peu de temps pour discuter à la fin.
