Active colloids are self-propelled particles moving in viscous fluids by consuming fuel from
their surroundings. Here, we review the numerical and theoretical modeling of active …

Active matter, which ranges from molecular motors to groups of animals, exists at different
length scales and timescales, and various computational models have been proposed to …

Activity and autonomous motion are fundamental in living and engineering systems. This
has stimulated the new field of'active matter'in recent years, which focuses on the physical …

A wide range of experimental systems including gliding, swarming and swimming bacteria,
in vitro motility assays, and shaken granular media are commonly described as self …

Active particles that are self-propelled by converting energy into mechanical motion
represent an expanding research realm in physics and chemistry. For micrometer-sized …

Bacteria are among the oldest and most abundant species on Earth. Bacteria successfully
colonize diverse habitats and play a significant role in the oxygen, carbon, and nitrogen …

Active matter agents consume internal energy or extract energy from the environment for
locomotion and force generation. Already, rather generic models, such as ensembles of …

Microswimmers exhibit an intriguing, highly-dynamic collective motion with large-scale
swirling and streaming patterns, denoted as active turbulence–reminiscent of classical high …

The fluid dynamics of microswimmers has received attention from the fields of microbiology,
microrobotics, and active matter. Microorganisms have evolved organelles termed cilia for …

We report the reconfigurable assembly of rod‐shaped eutectic gallium–indium alloy (EGaIn)
liquid metal colloidal motors by mimicking the growth behavior of a dandelion. EGaIn …
