Classical dynamical density functional theory: from fundamentals to applications

M te Vrugt, H Löwen, R Wittkowski - Advances in Physics, 2020 - Taylor & Francis
Classical dynamical density functional theory (DDFT) is one of the cornerstones of modern
statistical mechanics. It is an extension of the highly successful method of classical density …

Inverse-designed spinodoid metamaterials

S Kumar, S Tan, L Zheng, DM Kochmann - npj Computational Materials, 2020 - nature.com
After a decade of periodic truss-, plate-, and shell-based architectures having dominated the
design of metamaterials, we introduce the non-periodic class of spinodoid topologies …

Stochastic resetting of active Brownian particles with Lorentz force

I Abdoli, A Sharma - Soft Matter, 2021 - pubs.rsc.org
Equilibrium properties of a system of passive diffusing particles in an external magnetic field
are unaffected by Lorentz force. In contrast, active Brownian particles exhibit steady-state …

Motility-induced phase separation is reentrant

J Su, M Feng, Y Du, H Jiang, Z Hou - communications physics, 2023 - nature.com
Abstract Active Brownian particles (ABPs) with pure repulsion is an ideal model to
understand the effect of nonequilibrium on collective behaviors. It has long been established …

Nondiffusive fluxes in a Brownian system with Lorentz force

I Abdoli, HD Vuijk, JU Sommer, JM Brader, A Sharma - Physical review E, 2020 - APS
The Fokker-Planck equation provides a complete statistical description of a particle
undergoing random motion in a solvent. In the presence of Lorentz force due to an external …

Correlations in multithermostat Brownian systems with Lorentz force

I Abdoli, E Kalz, HD Vuijk, R Wittmann… - New journal of …, 2020 - iopscience.iop.org
We study the motion of a Brownian particle subjected to Lorentz force due to an external
magnetic field. Each spatial degree of freedom of the particle is coupled to a different …

Stationary state in Brownian systems with Lorentz force

I Abdoli, HD Vuijk, R Wittmann, JU Sommer… - Physical Review …, 2020 - APS
In systems with overdamped dynamics, the Lorentz force reduces the diffusivity of a
Brownian particle in the plane perpendicular to the magnetic field. The anisotropy in …

Characterizing the spatiotemporal evolution of paramagnetic colloids in time-varying magnetic fields with Minkowski functionals

E Hilou, K Joshi, SL Biswal - Soft Matter, 2020 - pubs.rsc.org
