    • Anomalous Diffusion in Ecology 

      Lukovic, Mirko (2015-01-14)
      As measurement techniques improve and increasingly sophisticated analysis methods are more common, biology becomes subject to the wide range of treatments coming from physics. In this thesis, we consider a specific ...
    • Branched Flow and Caustics in Two-Dimensional Random Potentials and Magnetic Fields 

      Metzger, Jakob Johannes (2010-09-14)
      Branched flow is a universal phenomenon of two-dimensional wave or particle flows which propagate through a weak random potential. Its origin is the formation of caustics, which are locations ...
    • Cell motility in microfluidic environments 

      Stellamanns, Eric (2012-02-17)
      Trypanosomes are single-celled bloodstream parasites and causative agents of African Sleeping Sickness in humans and Nagana disease in domestic livestock. The pathogen is transmitted by the ...
    • Dynamic Responses of Networks under Perturbations: Solutions, Patterns and Predictions 

      Zhang, Xiaozhu (2018-05-31)
      External perturbations are omnipresent in the dynamics of oscillator networks across biology, physics and engineering. How such networks dynamically respond to fluctuating perturbation signals fundamentally underlies their ...
    • Dynamics of Complex Flow Networks 

      Manik, Debsankha (2019-01-28)
      Flow networks consist of individual units called nodes connected by edges transporting flows of some quantity – such as electricity, water or cars. Each of us encounters more than one flow network every day. They form ...
    • Neural Networks with Nonlinear Couplings 

      Jahnke, Sven (2015-05-20)
      Cortical neural networks generate a ground state of highly irregular spiking activity whose dynamics are sensitive to small perturbations such as missing or additional spikes. A robust, reliable transmission of information ...
    • Self-Organized Dynamics of Power Grids: Smart Grids, Fluctuations and Cascades 

      Schäfer, Benjamin (2017-12-18)
      Climate change is one of the most pressing issues of our time and mitigating it requires a reduction of CO2 emissions. A big step towards achieving this goal is increasing the share of renewable energy sources, as the ...
    • Towards a Statistical Physics of Collective Mobility and Demand-Driven Transport 

      Sorge, Andreas (2018-05-29)
      Collective mobility and demand-driven transport systems are vital to proper, efficient and sustainable functioning of biological, technical and social systems. They are relevant to mastering several major transitions ...
    • Unicellular Parasite Motility: A Quantitative Perspective 

      Uppaluri, Sravanti (2011-08-18)
      The question of how single cells swim is of primary medical importance - especially in the case of pathogenic parasites. Biochemical and cell biological studies have helped elucidate many ...
