Reciprocal microswimmers in a viscoelastic fluid
Kento Yasuda, Mizuki Kuroda, Shigeyuki Komura
We suggest several reciprocal swimming mechanisms that lead to a locomotion only in viscoelastic fluids. The first situation is to have a difference between the two amplitudes of t…

Hydrodynamic interaction between two elastic microswimmers
Mizuki Kuroda, Kento Yasuda, Shigeyuki Komura
We investigate the hydrodynamic interaction between two elastic swimmers which are composed of three spheres and two harmonic springs. In this model, the natural length of each spr…

Elastic three-sphere microswimmer in a viscous fluid
Kento Yasuda, Yuto Hosaka, Mizuki Kuroda +2
We discuss the dynamics of a generalized three-sphere microswimmer in which the spheres are connected by two elastic springs. The natural length of each spring is assumed to underg…
