Goldilocks fluctuations: dynamic constraints on loop formation in scale-free transport networks

R Waszkiewicz, JB Shaw, M Lisicki, P Szymczak - Physical Review Letters, 2024 - APS
Adaptive transport networks are known to contain loops when subject to hydrodynamic
fluctuations. However, fluctuations are no guarantee that a loop will form, as shown by loop …
