Bacteria on surfaces exhibit collective behaviors, such as active turbulence and active stresses, which result from their motility, growth, and interactions with their local surroundings. However, interfacial deformations on soft surfaces…
In distributed network computing, a variant of the LOCAL model has been recently introduced, referred to as the SLEEPING model. In this model, nodes have the ability to decide on which round they are awake, and on which round they are…
We study interacting particle systems on the real line which generalize the Hammersley process [D. Aldous and P. Diaconis, Prob. Theory Relat. Fields 103, 199-213 (1995)]. Particles jump to the right to a randomly chosen point between their…
We consider a run an tumble particle with two velocity states $\pm v_0$, in an inhomogeneous force field $f(x)$ in one dimension. We obtain exact formulae for its velocity $V_L$ and diffusion constant $D_L$ for arbitrary periodic $f(x)$ of…
In this paper, we discuss the existence and uniqueness of coexistence states for a class of non-local elliptic system. This problem models the behaviour of a bacteria and a living nutrient, whose diffusion depends on the population of the…
Using both numerical and variational minimization of the bending and adhesion energy of two-dimensional lipid vesicles, we study their aggregation, and we find that the stable aggregates include an infinite number of vesicles and that they…
Motion in a one-dimensional (1D) microfluidic array is simulated. Water droplets, dragged by flowing oil, are arranged in a single row, and due to their hydrodynamic interactions spacing between these droplets oscillates with a wave-like…
We consider a general framework for multi-type interacting particle systems on graphs, where particles move one at a time by random walk steps, different types may have different speeds, and may interact, possibly randomly, when they meet.…
We consider a cluster growth model on the d-dimensional lattice, called internal diffusion limited aggregation (internal DLA). In this model, random walks start at the origin, one at a time, and stop moving when reaching a site not occupied…
We introduce an interface growth model exhibiting a nonequilibrium roughening transition (NRT). In the model, particles consist of two species, and deposit or evaporate on one dimensional substrate according to a given dynamic rule. When…
We present an improved model for studying the interactions between dipole moments of water molecules confined in beryl crystals, inspired by recent NMR experiments. Our model is based on a local crystal potential with dihexagonal symmetry…
An interaction site-based model of two-dimensional alcohols is proposed as a follow up of the recent SSMB site-site model for 2D water [J. Mol. Liq. 386 (2023 122475]. Computer simulation studies indicate that the model exhibits hbond-type…
The fourth-order quasilinear reaction-diffusion equation with a p-Laplacian operator is shown to admit three types of blow-up. Self-similar patterns are first constructed for the regional blow-up case, where the rescaled problem admits a…
We analyze here the energy states and associated wave functions available to a particle acted upon by a delta function potential of arbitrary strength and sign and fixed anywhere within a one-dimensional infinite well. We consider how the…
We consider an interacting particle system on the one dimensional lattice $\bf Z$ modeling combustion. The process depends on two integer parameters $2\le a<M<\infty$. Particles move independently as continuous time simple symmetric random…
We investigate by direct numerical simulations the flow that rising bubbles cause in an originally quiescent fluid. We employ the Eulerian-Lagrangian method with two-way coupling and periodic boundary conditions. In order to be able to…
In the distributed burning regime, turbulence disrupts the internal structure of the flame, and so the idea of laminar burning propagated by conduction is no longer valid. The nature of the burning depends on the turbulent Damkohler number…
Diffusion limited aggregation (DLA) is a well studied phenomenon in which diffusing particles cumulatively aggregate on a starting fixed seed point, forming a pattern which is fractal in structure. Here we report an interesting DLA process…
