Hydrodynamic Impedance Correction for Reduced-Order Modeling and Real-Time Control of Spermatozoa-Like Soft Micro-Robots for Medicine
Ahmet Fatih Tabak
Hydrodynamic interactions play a key role in the swimming behavior and power consumption of bio-inspired and bio-mimetic micro-swimmers, Cybernetic or artificial alike. As micro-ro…

Thermocapillary-driven fluid flow within microchannels
Guillermo J Amador, Ahmet Fatih Tabak, Ziyu Ren +3
Surface tension gradients induce Marangoni flow, which may be exploited for fluid transport. At the micrometer scale, these surface-driven flows can be more significant than those…
