Magnetically powered metachronal waves induce locomotion in self-assemblies

Ylona Collard, Galien Grosjean, Nicolas Vandewalle

When tiny soft ferromagnetic particles are placed along a liquid interface and exposed to a vertical magnetic field, the balance between capillary attraction and magnetic repulsion…

Regimes of motion of magnetocapillary swimmers

Alexander Sukhov, Maxime Hubert, Galien Grosjean +6

The dynamics of a triangular magnetocapillary swimmer is studied using the lattice Boltzmann method. Performing extensive numerical simulations taking into account the coupled dyna…

Quantitatively consistent, scale-spanning model for same-material tribocharging

Galien Grosjean, Sebastian Wald, Juan Carlos Sobarzo +1

By rigorously accounting for mesoscale spatial correlations in donor/acceptor surface properties, we develop a scale-spanning model for same-material tribocharging. We find that me…

Wave turbulence on the surface of a fluid in a high-gravity environment

Annette Cazaubiel, Sébastien Mawet, Alexis Darras +4

We report on the observation of gravity-capillary wave turbulence on the surface of a fluid in a high-gravity environment. By using a large-diameter centrifuge, the effective gravi…

Magnetoelastic instability in soft thin films

M. Poty, F. Weyer, G. Grosjean +2

Ferromagnetic particles are incorporated in a thin soft elastic matrix. A lamella, made of this smart material, is studied experimentally and modeled. We show herein that thin film…

Capillary assemblies in a rotating magnetic field

Galien Grosjean, Maxime Hubert, Ylona Collard +4

Small objects floating on a fluid have a tendency to aggregate due to capillary forces. This effect has been used, with the help of a magnetic induction field, to assemble submilli…
