Motility is the capacity for living organisms to move autonomously and with purpose, and is
essential to life. The transition from abiotic chemistry into motile cellular compartments has …

The field of active matter, and particularly active emulsions, is growing rapidly, with
significant progress made recently on both theoretical and experimental fronts. Here, we …

Soft robotics aims at creating systems with improved performance of movement and
adaptability in unknown, challenging, environments and with higher level of safety during …

Nature provides a successful evolutionary direction for single‐celled organisms to solve
complex problems and complete survival tasks–pseudopodium. Amoeba, a unicellular …

Triacylglycerols (TAGs) exhibit a monotropic polymorphism, forming three main polymorphic
forms upon crystallization: α, β'and β. The distinct physicochemical properties of these …

An active droplet system, programmed to repeatedly move autonomously at a specific
velocity in a well‐defined direction, is demonstrated. Coulombic energy is stored in …

Droplets are attractive building blocks for dynamic matter that organizes into adaptive
structures. Communication among collectively operating droplets opens untapped potential …

In the last decades, microrobotics has attracted much attention of researchers due to the
unique characteristics of shapes, propulsion mechanisms, and potential applications in the …

In this paper, we develop a theory to capture Taylor dispersion and concentration profiles of
a solute band transporting in a circular capillary in the presence of a background active fluid …

Nanomotors with active motion have recently attracted wide attention. Researchers have
developed a series of nanomotors with different architectures and propulsion mechanisms …
