Dynamics of Complex Flow Networks
(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 ... -
Dynamic Responses of Networks under Perturbations: Solutions, Patterns and Predictions
(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 ... -
Towards a Statistical Physics of Collective Mobility and Demand-Driven Transport
(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 ... -
Self-Organized Dynamics of Power Grids: Smart Grids, Fluctuations and Cascades
(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 ... -
Vocal repertoires of two matrilineal social whale species Long-finned Pilot whales (Globicephala melas) & Killer whales (Orcinus orca) in northern Norway
(2017-05-10)The aim of this study was to describe and investigate the vocal repertoire and possible factors influencing the size and composition of two matrilineal social whale species: long-finned pilot whales and killer whales in ... -
Neural Networks with Nonlinear Couplings
(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 ... -
Anomalous Diffusion in Ecology
(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 ... -
Chaos and Chaos Control in Network Dynamical Systems
(2013-01-16)Even fully deterministic dynamics may be chaotic, i.e., essentially unpredictable as time evolves. The first part of this thesis concerns the emergence of chaos in dynamical systems with symmetry, in particular certain ... -
Cell motility in microfluidic environments
(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 ... -
Unicellular Parasite Motility: A Quantitative Perspective
(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 ... -
Branched Flow and Caustics in Two-Dimensional Random Potentials and Magnetic Fields
(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 ...
