Modeling the time evolution of a camphor rotor perturbed by a stationary camphor source
Jerzy Gorecki, Yuki Koyano, Hiroyuki Kitahata
A self-propelled motion resulting from the dissipation of camphor molecules on the water surface has been attracting scientific attention for more than 200 years. A generally accep…
Activity Induced Diffusion Recovery in Crowded Colloidal Suspension
Arnab Maiti, Yuki Koyano, Hiroyuki Kitahata +1
We show that the force generated by active enzyme molecules are strong enough to influence the dynamics of their surroundings under artificial crowded environments. We measured the…
Pairing-induced motion of source and inert particles driven by surface tension
Hiroaki Ishikawa, Yuki Koyano, Hiroyuki Kitahata +1
We experimentally and theoretically investigate systems with a pair of source and inert particles that interacts through the concentration field. The experimental system comprises…
Autonomous elastic microswimmer
Katsutomo Era, Yuki Koyano, Yuto Hosaka +3
A model of an autonomous three-sphere microswimmer is proposed by implementing a coupling effect between the two natural lengths of an elastic microswimmer. Such a coupling mechani…
Hydrodynamic collective effects of active proteins in biological membranes
Yuki Koyano, Hiroyuki Kitahata, Alexander S. Mikhailov
Lipid bilayers forming biological membranes are known to behave as viscous 2D fluids on submicrometer scales; usually they contain a large number of active protein inclusions. Rece…
