TABLE II.

Dimensionless groups of the BD-kMC simulation.

Quantity	Parameter	Value	Notes
ϕ	MT packing fraction	0.54	Chosen to give nematic state at equilibrium in the absence of motors
r = l/b	MT aspect ratio	10
c = ρ 2 b 2 e β(μm+u0)	Motor concentration	1	Chosen to give average of 2 motors per nearby MT pair
$R_m=\sqrt{k_{B}T∕\left(K{b}^2\right)}$	Range of motor interaction	$1∕\sqrt{2}$	Chosen to be of order 1 for a short-range interaction
$\ell =v_w∕\left(k_{0}l\right)$	Motor run length	Reference 0.64, range 0.2–12.8	Motor-induced active stresses are largest when $\ell$ is of order 1.
f = fsb/(kBT)	Motor stall force	6
Pe = vwηb/(kBT)	Peclet number	Reference 0.68, range 0.02–2.7
