Purely hydrodynamic ordering of rotating disks at a finite Reynolds number
Purely hydrodynamic ordering of rotating disks at a finite Reynolds number
Self-organization of moving objects in hydrodynamic environments has recently attracted considerable attention in connection to natural phenomena and living systems. However, the underlying physical mechanism is much less clear due to the intrinsically nonequilibrium nature, compared with self-organization of thermal systems. Hydrodynamic interactions are believed to play a crucial role …
