研究了柔性边界系统中樟脑圆盘在水面上的运动。的边界可以动态地修改由非均匀的表面张力导致的樟脑分子分散的磁盘的非均匀表面浓度。我们调查的几何边界，迫使单向运动的磁盘。如果在一个特定的点上樟脑盘的存在或不存在被解释为二进制TRUE和TRUE变量，则所研究的系统可以被视为信号二极管。这种二极管可以被集成到更复杂的设备中，比如一个可以使樟脑圆盘单向旋转的环。
We study the motion of a camphor disk on the water surface in a system with flexible boundaries. The boundaries can be dynamically modified by non-uniform surface tension resulting from the nonhomogeneous surface concentration of the camphor molecules dissipated by the disk. We investigate the geometry of the boundaries that forces unidirectional motion of the disk. The studied system can be regarded as a signal diode if the presence or absence of a camphor disk at a specific point is interpreted as the binary TRUE and FALSE variables. The diode can be incorporated into more complex devices, like a ring that imposes unidirectional rotation of camphor disks.
