  • Active matter logic for autonomous microfluidics 

    Woodhouse, Francis Gordon; Dunkel, J (Nature Publishing GroupNature Communications, 2017-04-25)
    Chemically or optically powered active matter plays an increasingly important role in materials design, but its computational potential has yet to be explored systematically. The competition between energy consumption and ...

  • Ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic order in bacterial vortex lattices 

    Wioland, Hugo; Woodhouse, Francis Gordon; Dunkel, Jörn; Goldstein, Raymond Ethan (Nature Publishing GroupNature Physics, 2016-01-04)
    Despite their inherently non-equilibrium nature [1] , living systems can self-organize in highly ordered collective states [2,3] that share striking similarities with the thermodynamic equilibrium phases [4,5] of conventional ...

  • Mode Selection in Compressible Active Flow Networks. 

    Forrow, Aden; Woodhouse, Francis Gordon; Dunkel, Jörn (Physical review letters, 2017-07-14)
    Coherent, large-scale dynamics in many nonequilibrium physical, biological, or information transport networks are driven by small-scale local energy input. Here, we introduce and explore an analytically tractable nonlinear ...

  • Stochastic cycle selection in active flow networks 

    Woodhouse, Francis Gordon; Forrow, Aden; Fawcett, Joanna B; Dunkel, Jörn (National Academy of Sciences of the USAProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2016)
    Active biological flow networks pervade nature and span a wide range of scales, from arterial blood vessels and bronchial mucus transport in humans to bacterial flow through porous media or plasmodial shuttle streaming in ...
