Persistent fluid flows defined by active matter boundaries
Zijie Qu, Dominik Schildknecht, Shahriar Shadkhoo +5
Biological systems achieve precise control over ambient fluids through the self-organization of active protein structures including flagella, cilia, and cytoskeletal networks. In a…

Measuring the viscoelastic behavior of dilute polymer solutions using high-speed statistical particle microrheology
Zijie Qu, Xiongfeng Yi, Kenneth S. Breuer
The viscoelastic behavior of polymer solutions is commonly measured using oscillating shear rheometry, however, the accuracy of such methods is limited by the oscillating frequency…

Effects of shear thinning viscosity and viscoelastic stresses on flagellated bacteria motility
Zijie Qu, Kenneth S. Breuer
The behavior of flagellated bacteria swimming in non-Newtonian media remains an area with contradictory and conflicting results. We report on the behavior of wild-type and smooth-s…
