Elastohydrodynamics of 3D chemically active filaments
Matthew D Butler, Benjamin J Walker, Thomas Montenegro-Johnson +1
Active deformable filaments exhibit a large range of qualitatively different three-dimensional dynamics, depending on their flexibility, the strength and nature of the active forci…
Slender Phoretic Loops and Knots
Panayiota Katsamba, Matthew D. Butler, Lyndon Koens +1
We present an asymptotic theory for solving the dynamics of slender autophoretic loops and knots. Our formulation is valid for non-intersecting 3D centrelines, with arbitrary chemi…
Slender Phoretic Theory of chemically active filaments
Panayiota Katsamba, Sébastien Michelin, Thomas D. Montenegro-Johnson
Artificial microswimmers, or "microbots" have the potential to revolutionise non-invasive medicine and microfluidics. Microbots that are powered by self-phoretic mechanisms, such a…
