abstract = {Active vesicles, constructed through the confinement of
self-propelled particles (SPPs) inside a lipid membrane
shell, exhibit a large variety of non-equilibrium shapes,
ranging from the formation of local tethers and dendritic
conformations, to prolate and bola-like structures. To
better understand the behavior of active vesicles, we
perform simulations of membranes modelled as dynamically
triangulated surfaces enclosing active Brownian particles. A
systematic analysis of membrane deformations and SPP
clustering, as a function of SPP activity and volume
fraction inside the vesicle is carried out. Distributions of
membrane local curvature, and the clustering and mobility of
SPPs obtained from simulations of active vesicles are
analysed. There exists a feedback mechanism between the
enhancement of membrane curvature, the formation of clusters
of active particles, and local or global changes in vesicle
shape. The emergence of active tension due to the activity
of SPPs can well be captured by the Young–Laplace
equation. Furthermore, a simple numerical method for tether
detection is presented and used to determine correlations
between the number of tethers, their length, and local
curvature. We also provide several geometrical arguments to
explain different tether characteristics for various
conditions. These results contribute to the future
development of steerable active vesicles or soft
micro-robots whose behaviour can be controlled and used for
potential applications.},
