Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this project, we aimed to unveil the characteristics of fluctuation and noise in far-from-equilibrium conditions; especially focused on the self-propelled droplets and their collective motion. For this purpose, spontaneous interfacial agitation, self-propelled object, and the collective behavior of self-propelled objects are investigated. As for the researches on interfacial agitation, we investigated the effect of wettability imbalance, Marangoni effect, and aggregate formation. For these researches, experimental aspect showed progress. Notably, we developed mathematical model for the interfacial fluctuation due to aggregate formation. As for the research on self-propelled objects, we studied theoretical aspect of a self-propelled droplet driven by Marangoni effect. As for the collective behavior of self-propelled particles, we numerically and theoretically studied nonequilibrium phase, which appeared as a result of memory effect.
