Effects of the kinetic energy in heat for overdamped systems

PV Paraguassú, R Aquino, L Defaveri, WAM Morgado - Physical Review E, 2022 - APS
In the derivation of the thermodynamics of overdamped systems, one ignores the kinetic
energy contribution since the velocity is a fast variable. In this paper, we show that the kinetic …

Effective thermodynamics of two interacting underdamped Brownian particles

T Herpich, K Shayanfard, M Esposito - Physical Review E, 2020 - APS
Starting from the stochastic thermodynamics description of two coupled underdamped
Brownian particles, we showcase and compare three different coarse-graining schemes …

Optimal crawling: From mechanical to chemical actuation

P Recho, L Truskinovsky - Physical Review E, 2024 - APS
Taking inspiration from the crawling motion of biological cells on a substrate, we consider a
physical model of self-propulsion where the spatiotemporal driving can involve both a …

Ornstein-Uhlenbeck information swimmers with external and internal feedback controls

Z Hou, Z Zhang, J Li, K Yasuda, S Komura - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2024 - arxiv.org
Using an underdamped active Ornstein-Uhlenbeck particle, we propose two information
swimmer models having either external or internal feedback control and perform their …

Geometry-induced rectification for an active object

JS Lee, JM Park, JD Noh, H Park - Physical Review Research, 2021 - APS
Studies of the rectified current induced by active particles have received great attention due
to its possible application to a microscopic motor in biological environments. Insertion of an …

Information swimmer: Self-propulsion without energy dissipation

C Huang, M Ding, X Xing - Physical Review Research, 2020 - APS
We study an information-based mechanism of self-propulsion in noisy environment. An
information swimmer maintains directional motion by periodically measuring its velocity and …
