Spike formation theory in 3D flow separation
Sreejith Santhosh, Haodong Qin, Bjoern F. Klose +3
We develop a frame-invariant theory of material spike formation during flow separation over a no-slip boundary in three-dimensional flows with arbitrary time dependence. Based on t…
Optimal Locomotion for Limbless Crawlers
Sreejith Santhosh, Mattia Serra
Limbless crawling is ubiquitous in biology, from cells to organisms. We develop and analyze a model for the dynamics of one-dimensional elastic crawlers, subject to active stress a…
Activity induced nematic order in isotropic liquid crystals
Sreejith Santhosh, Mehrana R. Nejad, Amin Doostmohammadi +2
We use linear stability analysis to show that an isotropic phase of elongated particles with dipolar flow fields can develop nematic order as a result of their activity. We argue t…
