Comment on “Ratchet universality in the presence of thermal noise”
(2013)
A recent paper [P. J. Martínez and R. Chacón, Phys. Rev. E 87, 062114 (2013)] presents numerical simulations on a system exhibiting directed ratchet transport of a driven overdamped Brownian particle subjected to a spatially ...

Time-shift invariance determines the functional shape of the current in dissipative rocking ratchets
(2013)
Ratchets are devices that are able to rectify an otherwise oscillatory behavior by exploiting an asymmetry of the system. In rocking ratchets, the asymmetry is induced through a proper choice of external forces and modulations ...

Propulsion efficiency of a dynamic self-assembled helical ribbon
(2013)
We study the dynamic self-assembly and propulsion of a ribbon formed from paramagnetic colloids in a dynamic magnetic field. The sedimented ribbon assembles due to time averaged dipolar interactions between the beads. The ...
