Time-reversal symmetry violations and entropy production in field theories of polar active matter

ØL Borthne, É Fodor, ME Cates - New Journal of Physics, 2020 - iopscience.iop.org
We investigate the steady-state entropy production rate (EPR) in the hydrodynamic Vicsek
model (HVM) and diffusive flocking model (DFM). Both models display a transition from an …

[BUKU][B] Crucial events: why are catastrophes never expected?

BJ West, P Grigolini - 2021 - World Scientific
The Industrial Age began its transition into the Information Age with the end of the Second
World War, which is probably as good a road sign as any other to mark its beginning, and …

Thermodynamics and computation during collective motion near criticality

E Crosato, RE Spinney, R Nigmatullin, JT Lizier… - Physical Review E, 2018 - APS
We study self-organization of collective motion as a thermodynamic phenomenon in the
context of the first law of thermodynamics. It is expected that the coherent ordered motion …

Entropy evaluation sheds light on ecosystem complexity

M Miotto, L Monacelli - Physical Review E, 2018 - APS
Preserving biodiversity and ecosystem stability is a challenge that can be pursued through
modern statistical mechanics modeling. Here we introduce a variational maximum entropy …

TOLOMEO, a novel machine learning algorithm to measure information and order in correlated networks and predict their state

M Miotto, L Monacelli - Entropy, 2021 - mdpi.com
We present ToloMEo (TOpoLogical netwOrk Maximum Entropy Optimization), a program
implemented in C and Python that exploits a maximum entropy algorithm to evaluate …

Nonsymmetric interactions trigger collective swings in globally ordered systems

A Cavagna, I Giardina, A Jelic, S Melillo, L Parisi… - Physical review …, 2017 - APS
Many systems in nature, from ferromagnets to flocks of birds, exhibit ordering phenomena on
the large scale. In condensed matter systems, order is statistically robust for large enough …

[PDF][PDF] Beyond Distributed Cognition: Towards a Taxonomy of Nonreductive Social Cognition.

ZA Neemeh, LH Favela - CogSci, 2017 - researchgate.net
Studies of social cognition often assume a reductionist, computational-representational
conceptual framework. Distributed cognition is one of the few extant conceptual frameworks …

[BUKU][B] Design of oscillatory movement for ground-based locomotion and synchronized movement in bioinspired robotics

W Zhou - 2022 - search.proquest.com
Animals in nature move through the rhythmic oscillation of their appendages and bodies.
Similar oscillatory motion is a hallmark of bioinspired robots, which seek to embed biological …

Population model of Temnothorax albipennis as a distributed dynamical system: I. Self-consistent threshold is an emergent property in combination of quorum sensing …

S Qiu - bioRxiv, 2021 - biorxiv.org
House hunting of ant, such as Temnothorax albipennis, has been shown to be a distributed
dynamical system. Such a system includes agent-based algorithm, with agents in different …

Lateral contact yields longitudinal cohesion in active undulatory systems

W Zhou, JD Peralta, Z Hao, N Gravish - Physical Review E, 2022 - APS
Many animals and robots move using undulatory motion of their bodies. When the bodies
are in close proximity undulatory motion can lead to novel collective behavior such as gait …
