Explore a 44-minute conference talk on the nonlinear dynamics of active solids through nonreciprocal mechanochemical feedback, presented by Xiaoming Mao from the University of Michigan. Delve into the fascinating world of active matter and its collective phenomena emerging from energy-consuming components interacting with their environment. Discover the latest research on active solids, including elastically coupled networks that enable actuation and shape changes not possible in equilibrium systems. Learn about the connections between various disciplines such as hydrodynamic and elastic theories of active matter, living matter, and materials far from equilibrium. Gain insights into the behavior of active hydrogels, metamaterials, and mechanical structures composed of linked robotic components. Understand the overarching principles spanning these fields and identify potential areas for future breakthroughs in the study of active mechanics.
