Elastica++: A high-performance, multiphysics framework for large interacting assemblies of Cosserat rods
Tejaswin Parthasarathy, Seung Hyun Kim, Songyuan Cui +1
Soft, slender structures are ubiquitous in natural and engineered systems, with broad application potential from biomimetic materials to soft robotics. However, there is a notable…
Soft streaming -- flow rectification via elastic boundaries
Yashraj Bhosale, Tejaswin Parthasarathy, Mattia Gazzola
Viscous streaming is an efficient mechanism to exploit inertia at the microscale for flow control. While streaming from rigid features has been thoroughly investigated, when body c…
Multi-curvature viscous streaming: flow topology and particle manipulation
Yashraj Bhosale, Giridar Vishwanathan, Tejaswin Parthasarathy +2
Viscous streaming refers to the rectified, steady flows that emerge when a liquid oscillates around an immersed microfeature, typically a solid body or a bubble. The ability of suc…
Friction modulation in limbless, three-dimensional gaits and heterogeneous terrains
Xiaotian Zhang, Noel Naughton, Tejaswin Parthasarathy +1
Motivated by a possible convergence of terrestrial limbless locomotion strategies ultimately determined by interfacial effects, we show how both 3D gait alterations and locomotory…
Three-dimensional geometry and topology effects in viscous streaming
Fan Kiat Chan, Yashraj Bhosale, Tejaswin Parthasarathy +1
Recent studies on viscous streaming flows in two dimensions have elucidated the impact of body curvature variations on resulting flow topology and dynamics, with opportunities for…
A remeshed vortex method for mixed rigid/soft body fluid--structure interaction
Yashraj Bhosale, Tejaswin Parthasarathy, Mattia Gazzola
We outline a 2D algorithm for solving incompressible flow--structure interaction problems for mixed rigid/soft body representations, within a consistent framework based on the reme…
A hyperelastic oscillatory Couette system
Tejaswin Parthasarathy, Yashraj Bhosale, Mattia Gazzola
We report (semi-)analytical solutions of a problem involving a visco-hyperelastic solid material layer sandwiched between two fluid layers, in turn confined by two long planar wall…
Elastica: A compliant mechanics environment for soft robotic control
Noel Naughton, Jiarui Sun, Arman Tekinalp +2
Soft robots are notoriously hard to control. This is partly due to the scarcity of models able to capture their complex continuum mechanics, resulting in a lack of control methodol…
Energy Shaping Control of a CyberOctopus Soft Arm
Heng-Sheng Chang, Udit Halder, Chia-Hsien Shih +7
This paper entails application of the energy shaping methodology to control a flexible, elastic Cosserat rod model. Recent interest in such continuum models stems from applications…
Shape curvature effects in viscous streaming
Yashraj Bhosale, Tejaswin Parthasarathy, Mattia Gazzola
Viscous streaming flows generated by objects of constant curvature (circular cylinders, infinite plates) have been well understood. Yet, characterization and understanding of such…
Streaming enhanced flow-mediated transport
Tejaswin Parthasarathy, Fan Kiat Chan, Mattia Gazzola
We investigate the capability of an active body (master) to manipulate a passive object (slave) purely via contactless flow-mediated mechanisms, motivated by potential applications…
