Collective dynamics of self-propelled particles : from crystallization to turbulence
We explore active rod-like colloidal particles by computer simulation and theory. First of all, the Brownian motion of self-propelled particles is described. Then Brownian dynamics simulations
are used to explore the non-equilibrium dynamics of concentrated self-propelled rods which are interacting via a Yukawa segment model. In a linear channel, transient hedgehog-clustering at the system
boundaries is found [1]. In the two-dimensional bulk, anomalous
turbulence emerges [2] in agreement with recent experimental data on
bacterial motion [3]. We then discuss possibilities to trap self-propelled particles efficiently [4]. Finally we study the crystallization transition for very dense self-propelled particles and find differences to equilibrium freezing [5,6].

Séminaire PMMH - Francesca Borghi Università degli Studi di Milano
Vendredi 20 juin de 11h00 à 12h00 - Salle réunion PMMH 1
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 (…) -

Séminaire PMMH - Salvatore Federico (University of Calgary, Canada)
Vendredi 4 juillet de 11h00 à 12h00 - Salle réunion PMMH 1
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 (…) -

The audience is composed of people with rather heterogeneous backgrounds including specialists in solids, fluids, granular flows, statistical physics... so the idea is to keep your talk understandable by people not necessarily working in your field... The seminar time slot runs from 11am to noon so the best is to make the talk last around 45 minutes to leave some time for discussion.
