Orientation Dynamics of Rigid Fibers in a Microfluidic Burgers-like Vortex
Marine Aulnette, Mathis Coutadeur, Clément Bielinski +2
The paper studies how rigid, neutrally buoyant fibers orient and rotate inside a controlled microfluidic vortex, showing that their motion follows Jeffery’s equations combined with…
Moving backward to go faster: Diatom-inspired sliding reveals efficient modes of locomotion
Julien le Dreff, Blaise Delmotte
Across biological scales, from sperm cells to whales, locomotion commonly relies on undulatory gaits, in which traveling deformation waves interact with the surrounding fluid to ge…
A microfluidic band-pass filter for flexible fiber separation
Li Zhibo, Bielinski Clément, Lindner Anke +2
The control of particle trajectories in structured microfluidic environments has significantly advanced sorting technologies, most notably through deterministic lateral displacemen…
Transport of spherical microparticles in a 3D vortex flow
Marine Aulnette, Noa Burshtein, Arash Alizad Banaei +5
Particles are common in biological and environmental flows and are widely used in industrial and pharmaceutical applications. Their motion and flow dynamics are strongly affected b…
Modeling complex particle suspensions: perspectives on the rigid multiblob method
Blaise Delmotte, Florencio Balboa Usabiaga
Many suspensions contain particles with complex shapes that are affected not only by hydrodynamics, but also by thermal fluctuations, internal kinematic constraints and other long-…
