Metachronal coordination at the mesoscale

Sebastian Ziegler, Megan Delens, Ylona Collard +3

In nature, metachronal coordination is an efficient strategy for fluid pumping and self-propulsion. Yet, mimetic systems for this type of organization are scarce. Recently, metachr…

The Scallop Theorem and Swimming at the Mesoscale

Maxime Hubert, Oleg Trosman, Ylona Collard +4

By synergistically combining modeling, simulation and experiments, we show that there exists a regime of self-propulsion in which the inertia in the fluid dynamics can be separated…

Remote control of self-assembled microswimmers

Galien Grosjean, Guillaume Lagubeau, Alexis Darras +3

Physics governing the locomotion of microorganisms and other microsystems is dominated by viscous damping. An effective swimming strategy involves the non-reciprocal and periodic d…

Strings of droplets propelled by coherent waves

B. Filoux, M. Hubert, N. Vandewalle

Bouncing walking droplets possess fascinating properties due to their peculiar wave/particule interaction. In order to study such walkers in a 1d system, we considered the case of…

Resonant and antiresonant bouncing droplets

M. Hubert, D. Robert, H. Caps +2

When placed onto a vibrating liquid bath, a droplet may adopt a permanent bouncing behavior, depending on both the forcing frequency and the forcing amplitude. The relationship bet…
