Explore a 45-minute conference talk on defect emission and absorption on cones, as well as conical billiards, presented by David Nelson from Harvard University. Delve into the fascinating world of active mechanics as part of the "The Many Faces of Active Mechanics" conference held at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics. Gain insights into the emerging field of active solids, which focuses on elastically coupled networks where active energy input enables actuation and shape changes not possible in equilibrium. Discover how this research connects to various disciplines, including hydrodynamic and elastic theories of active matter, living matter, and materials far from equilibrium. Learn about the conference's aim to identify overarching principles and areas for future breakthroughs in active matter research.
