E. coli bacterium near corrugated surfaces: near-surface swimming, escape, and hydrodynamic trapping
Pierre Martin, Gonçalo C. Antunes, Holger Stark
Bacteria often swim in complex environments where surfaces are ubiquitous and rarely flat. Surface topography and curvature can strongly affect bacterial motility, with important c…
The interplay of shape and catalyst distribution in the yield of compressible flow microreactors
G. C. Antunes, M. Jiménez-Sánchez, P. Malgaretti +2
We develop a semi-analytical model for transport in structured catalytic microreactors, where both reactant and product are compressible fluids. Making use of the lubrication and F…
Turning catalytically active pores into active pumps
G. C. Antunes, P. Malgaretti, J. Harting
We develop a semi-analytical model of self-diffusioosmotic transport in active pores, which includes advective transport and the inverse chemical reaction which consumes solute. In…
Pumping and mixing in active pores
G. C. Antunes, P. Malgaretti, J. Harting +1
We show both numerically and analytically that a chemically patterned active pore can act as a micro/nano-pump for fluids, even if it is fore-aft symmetric. This is possible due to…
How to design cell-mediated self-assembled colloidal scaffolds
C. S. Dias, C. A. Custodio, G. C. Antunes +3
A critical step in tissue engineering is the design and synthesis of 3D biocompatible matrices (scaffolds) to support and guide the proliferation of cells and tissue growth. Most e…
Smoluchowski equations for linker-mediated irreversible aggregation
J. M. Tavares, G. C. Antunes, C. S. Dias +2
In order to study linker-mediated aggregation of colloidal particles with limited valence, we combine kinetic Monte Carlo simulations and an approximate theory based on the Smoluch…
