Orientation Dynamics of Sedimenting Anisotropic Particles in Turbulence
Prateek Anand, Samriddhi Sankar Ray, Ganesh Subramanian
We examine the dynamics of small anisotropic particles (spheroids) sedimenting through homogeneous isotropic turbulence using direct numerical simulations and theory. The gravity-i…
Shear induced migration of microswimmers in pressure-driven channel flow
LaxminarsimhaRao V., Sankalp Nambiar, Ganesh Subramanian
We study the shear induced migration of microswimmers (primarily, active Brownian particles or ABP's) in a plane Poiseuille flow. For wide channels characterized by $U_b/HD_r \ll 1…
Enhanced velocity fluctuations in interacting swimmer suspensions
Sankalp Nambiar, Piyush Garg, Ganesh Subramanian
A dilute non-interacting suspension of micro-swimmers exhibits a finite velocity variance and short-ranged correlations that decay over a swimmer length. For a suspension of intera…
