Modeling bacterial flow field with regularized singularities
Yaochen Yang, Daiki Matsunaga, Da Wei +1
The flow field generated by a swimming bacterium serves as a fundamental building block for understanding hydrodynamic interactions between bacteria. Although the flow field genera…
Scaling transition of active turbulence from two to three dimensions
Da Wei, Yaochen Yang, Xuefeng Wei +4
Turbulent flows are observed in low-Reynolds active fluids. They are intrinsically different from the classical inertial turbulence and behave distinctively in two- and three-dimen…
Confinement reduces surface accumulation of swimming bacteria
Da Wei, Shiyuan Hu, Tangmiao Tang +3
Many swimming bacteria naturally inhabit confined environments, yet how confinement influences their swimming behaviors remains unclear. Here, we combine experiments, continuum mod…
Field-controlling patterns of sheared ferrofluid droplets
Shunichi Ishida, Yaochen Yang, Fanlong Meng +1
We investigate how ferrofluid droplets suspended in a wall-bounded shear flow can organise when subjected to an external magnetic field. By tuning the magnitude of the external mag…
