Robust Emergent Dynamics in Topological Stochastic Systems
Offered By: Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore a 40-minute conference talk on robust emergent dynamics in topological stochastic systems presented by Evelyn Tang from Rice University. Delve into cutting-edge research on active matter and active solids as part of the "The Many Faces of Active Mechanics" conference held at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics. Discover how energy-consuming components interact to create collective phenomena in active fluids and solids, from spontaneous flow to flocking and shape changes. Gain insights into the interdisciplinary nature of this field, connecting hydrodynamic and elastic theories of active matter with living matter, quantum materials, and animate matter. Learn about the conference's aim to identify overarching principles and areas for future breakthroughs in active solids research, including active hydrogels, metamaterials, and mechanical structures composed of linked robotic components.
