Active transport in a channel: stabilisation by flow or thermodynamics

Recent experiments on active materials, such as dense bacterial suspensions and microtubule–kinesin motor mixtures, show a promising potential for achieving self-sustained flows. However, to develop active microfluidics it is necessary to understand the behaviour of active systems confined to channe...
