In the open circular billiard particles are placed initially with a uniform distribution in their positions inside a planar circular vesicle. They all have velocities of the same magnitude, whose initial directions are also uniformly…

We use the discrete kinetic theory with the free-orientation parameter being fixed ($\pi/4$) to derive the macroscopic velocity field for many particles flowing through a microdomain. Our results resemble qualitatively other hydrodynamical…

We perform the first long-time exploration of the classical dynamics of a driven billiard with a four dimensional phase space. With increasing velocity of the ensemble we observe an evolution from a large chaotic sea with stickiness due to…

We investigate the transport properties of active particles undergoing a three-state run-and-tumble dynamics in one dimension, induced by non-reciprocal transition rates between self-propelling velocity states $\{-v, 0, +v\}$ that…

The horizontal dynamics of a bouncing ball interacting with an irregular surface is investigated and is found to demonstrate behavior analogous to a random walk. Its stochastic character is substantiated by the calculation of a permutation…
