Mechanics of cell crawling by means of force-free cyclic motion
Mitsusuke Tarama, Ryoichi Yamamoto
The mechanics of crawling cells on a substrate is investigated by using a minimal model that satisfies the force-free condition. A cell is described by two subcellular elements con…

Dynamics of Deformable Active Particles under External Flow Field
Mitsusuke Tarama
In most practical situations, active particles are affected by their environment, for example, by a chemical concentration gradient, light intensity, gravity, or confinement. In pa…

Swinging Motion of Active Deformable Particles in Poiseuille Flow
Mitsusuke Tarama
Dynamics of active deformable particles in an external Poiseuille flow is investigated. In order to make the analysis general, we employ time-evolution equations derived from symme…
