Abstract |
|
We reveal new classes of solutions to hydrodynamic Euler alignment systems governing collective behavior of flocks. The solutions describe unidirectional parallel motion of agents and are globally well-posed in multidimensional settings subject to a threshold condition similar to the one-dimensional case. We develop the flocking and stability theory of these solutions and show long-time convergence to a traveling wave with rapidly aligned velocity field. In the context of multiscale models introduced by Shvydkoy and Tadmor (Multiscale Model. Simul. 19:2 (2021), 1115–1141) our solutions can be superimposed into Mikado formations — clusters of unidirectional flocks pointing in various directions. Such formations exhibit multiscale alignment phenomena and resemble realistic behavior of interacting large flocks. |
