The paper focuses on a generic optimal control problem (OCP) deriving from the competition between two microbial populations in continuous cultures. The competition for nutrients is reduced to a two-dimensional dynamical nonlinear-system that can be derived from classical quota models. We investigate an OCP that achieves species separation...

Understanding and optimizing the design of helical micro-swimmers is crucial for advancing their application in various fields. This study presents an innovative approach combining Free-Form Deformation with Bayesian Optimization to enhance the shape of these swimmers. Our method facilitates the computation of generic swimmer shapes that...

The self-organization of active particles on a two-dimensional single-occupancy lattice is investigated, with an emphasis on the effects of boundary confinement and the influence of an external mean fluid flow. The study examines collective behaviors, particularly the transition from a disordered phase to the formation of orientationally...
