Active matter exhibits a wealth of emerging nonequilibrium behaviours. A paradigmatic
example is the interior of cells, where active components, such as the cytoskeleton, are …

The conformational properties of flexible and semiflexible polymers exposed to active noise
are studied theoretically. The noise may originate from the interaction of the polymer with …

The conformational and dynamical properties of semiflexible active Brownian ring polymers
are investigated analytically. A ring is described by the Gaussian semiflexible polymer …

The conformational and dynamical properties of active self-propelled filaments/polymers are
investigated in the presence of hydrodynamic interactions by both, Brownian dynamics …

The propulsion mechanisms and collective dynamics of chemically powered Janus sphere
dimers at the micro-and nanoscales, confined in a quasi-two-dimensional geometry, are …

The dynamical properties of a flexible dumbbell composed of active Brownian particles are
analytically analyzed. The dumbbell is considered as a simplified description of a linear …

The conformational and dynamical properties of active polymers in solution are determined
by the nature of the activity. Here, the behavior of polymers with self-propelled, active …

After relaxing some assumptions we apply a single-chain mean-field mathematical model
recently introduced [RSC Adv.(2014)] to describe the role of molecular motors in the …

Locomotion is a major achievement of biological evolution and is an essential aspect of life.
Search for food, orientation toward light, and spreading of the own species are only possible …

Active gels perform key mechanical roles inside the cell, such as cell division, motion, and
force sensing. The unique mechanical properties required to perform such functions arise …
