Reciprocal swimming at intermediate Reynolds number
Nicholas J. Derr, Thomas Dombrowski, Chris H. Rycroft +1
In Stokes flow, Purcell's scallop theorem forbids objects with time-reversible (reciprocal) swimming strokes from moving. In the presence of inertia, this restriction is eased and…
Pairwise and collective behavior between model swimmers at intermediate Reynolds numbers
Thomas Dombrowski, Hong Nguyen, Daphne Klotsa
We computationally studied the pair interactions and collective behavior of asymmetric, dumbbell swimmers over a range of intermediate Reynolds numbers and initial configurations.…
Kinematics of a simple reciprocal model swimmer at intermediate Reynolds numbers
Thomas Dombrowski, Daphne Klotsa
We computationally study the kinematics of a simple model reciprocal swimmer (asymmetric dumbbell) as a function of the Reynolds number (Re) and investigate how the onset and gradu…
Transition in swimming direction in a model self-propelled inertial swimmer
Thomas Dombrowski, Shannon K. Jones, Georgios Katsikis +3
We propose a reciprocal, self-propelled model swimmer at intermediate Reynolds numbers (). Our swimmer consists of two unequal spheres that oscillate in antiphase generating no…
