Explore the fascinating world of inertial and active caustics in this 57-minute lecture by Rama Govindarajan from the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences. Delve into the complex interplay between fluid dynamics, soft matter physics, and biological systems as part of the "Soft and Living Matter: From Fundamental Concepts to New Material Design" program. Gain insights into how these concepts apply to diverse fields such as food science, personal care products, and bacterial motion in confined environments. Learn about the interdisciplinary nature of soft matter physics, drawing from dynamical systems, fluid dynamics, condensed matter, and statistical physics. Discover how these principles extend to biology, earth and atmospheric science, engineering, and various industries. Engage with cutting-edge research presented by global experts and early career academics in areas like geometry and mechanics, collective phenomena, suspensions and particulate systems, liquid crystals, biological matter, and non-equilibrium physics.
