Swarms with canonical active Brownian motion.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a swarm model of Brownian particles with harmonic interactions, where the individuals undergo canonical active Brownian motion, i.e., each Brownian particle can convert internal energy to mechanical energy of motion. We assume the existence of a single global internal energy of the system. Numerical simulations show amorphous swarming behavior as well as static configurations. Analytic understanding of the system is provided by studying stability properties of equilibria.

Nonequilibrium statistical mechanics of swarms of driven particles
As a rough model for the collective motions of cells and organisms we develop here the statistical mechanics of swarms of self-propelled particles. Our approach is closely related to the recently developed theory of active Brownian motion and the theory of canonicaldissipative systems. Free motion and motion of a swarms confined in an external field is studied. Briefly the case of particles con...
متن کاملSelf-Organization, Active Brownian Dynamics, and Biological Applications
After summarizing basic features of self-organization such as entropy export, feedbacks and nonlinear dynamics, we discuss several examples in biology. The main part of the paper is devoted to a model of active Brownian motion that allows a stochastic description of the active motion of biological entities based on energy consumption and conversion. This model is applied to the dynamics of swar...
متن کاملCanonical active Brownian motion.
Active Brownian motion is the complex motion of active Brownian particles. They are "active" in the sense that they can transform their internal energy into energy of motion and thus create complex motion patterns. Theories of active Brownian motion so far imposed couplings between the internal energy and the kinetic energy of the system. We investigate how this idea can be naturally taken furt...
متن کاملInteracting Brownian Swarms: Some Analytical Results
We consider the dynamics of swarms of scalar Brownian agents subject to local imitation mechanisms implemented using mutual rank-based interactions. For appropriate values of the underlying control parameters, the swarm propagates tightly and the distances separating successive agents are iid exponential random variables. Implicitly, the implementation of rank-based mutual interactions, require...
متن کاملNonlinear Dynamics of Active Brownian Particles
We consider finite systems of interacting Brownian particles including active friction in the framework of nonlinear dynamics and statistical/stochastic theory. First we study the statistical properties for 1−d systems of masses connected by Toda springs which are imbedded into a heat bath. Including negative friction we find N + 1 attractors of motion including an attractor describing dissipat...
