Stationary motion of active Brownian particles.

The stationary motion of active Brownian particles is studied by using the stochastic averaging method for quasi-integrable Hamiltonian systems. First the stochastic averaging method for quasi-integrable Hamiltonian systems is briefly introduced. Then the stationary solution of the dynamic equations governing an active Brown particle in plane with the Rayleigh velocity-dependent friction model subject to Gaussian white noise excitations is obtained by using the stochastic averaging method. The solution is validated by comparison with the result from Monte Carlo simulation. Finally, two more stationary solutions of the dynamic equations governing active Brownian particle with the Schienbein-Gruler and Erdmann velocity-dependent friction models, respectively, subject to Gaussian white noise excitations are also given.
