Rolling, rolling, rolling -- a new self-propulsion mechanism — •Falko Ziebert1,2 and Igor Kulic21Physikalisches Institut, Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg, 79104 Freiburg, Germany — 2Institut Charles Sadron UPR22-CNRS, 67034 Strasbourg Cedex 2, France

We describe a generic mechanism that induces an instability towards rolling motion of a rod along a heated plate. The mechanism, relying on geometric planar confinement, can be explained by an effective model combining elasticity of a rod with thermal advection-diffusion. We exemplify the versatility of the effect by investigating self-propellers, as well as simple motors and energy storage devices, both experimentally and theoretically.
