Order and hydrodynamic fluctuations in active suspensions
In this Thesis we study theoretically some aspects of the dynamics of soft active suspensions. Following a bottom-up approach, we derive the continuum equations for a suspension starting from underlying models for the microscopic dynamics, where the microscopic objects are constructed out of spheres...
