Synchronization in A Carpet of Hydrodynamically Coupled Rotors with Random Intrinsic Frequency

We investigate synchronization caused by long-range hydrodynamic interaction in a two-dimensional, substrated array of rotors with random intrinsic frequencies. The rotor mimics a flagellated bacterium that is attached to the substrate ("bacterial carpet") and exerts an active force on the...
