Black Hole Simulations with CUDA
In 1915 Albert Einstein derived the fundamental laws of General Relativity, which predict the existence of gravitational radiation. While indirect evidence is by now well established and led in 1993 to the Nobel Prize in Physics being awarded to Hulse and Taylor, no direct detection has occurred to date. This is because gravitational waves reaching Earth are extremely weak. Recently, researcher...
متن کاملStability of active suspensions.
We study theoretically the stability of "active suspensions," modeled here as a Stokesian fluid in which are suspended motile particles. The basis of our study is a kinetic model recently posed by Saintillan and Shelley [D. Saintillan and M. J. Shelley, Phys. Rev. Lett. 100, 178103 (2008); D. Saintillan and M. J. Shelley, Phys. Fluids 20, 123304 (2008)] where the motile particles are either "pu...
متن کاملTheory of active suspensions
Active suspensions, of which a bath of swimming microorganisms is a paradigmatic example, denote large collections of individual particles or macromolecules capable of converting fuel into mechanical work and microstructural stresses. Such systems, which have excited much research in the last decade, exhibit complex dynamical behaviors such as large-scale correlated motions and pattern formatio...
متن کاملSimulations of Flexible Fiber Suspensions
Understanding the behavior of flexible fiber suspensions is challenging because of the many variables that affect macroscopic properties (such as fiber length, concentration, shape, flexibility, interactions, etc.), and the difficulty of systematically varying the system variables in experimental studies. In this report, we show how fiber-level simulations can be used to systematically investig...
متن کاملRheology of active-particle suspensions.
We study the interplay of activity, order, and flow through a set of coarse-grained equations governing the hydrodynamic velocity, concentration, and stress fields in a suspension of active, energy-dissipating particles. We make several predictions for the rheology of such systems, which can be tested on bacterial suspensions, cell extracts with motors and filaments, or artificial machines in a...
