On the cross-streamline lift of microswimmers in viscoelastic flows
Akash Choudhary, Holger Stark
The current work studies the dynamics of a microswimmer in pressure-driven flow of a weakly viscoelastic fluid. Employing the second-order fluid model, we show that the self-propel…
Comment on "Migration of an electrophoretic particle in a weakly inertial or viscoelastic shear flow"
Akash Choudhary, T. Renganathan, S. Pushpavanam
A recent article (Khair and Kabarowski; Phys. Rev. Fluids 5, 033702) has studied the cross-streamline migration of electrophoretic particles in unbounded shear flows with weak iner…
Non-Newtonian effects on the slip and mobility of a self-propelling active particle
Akash Choudhary, T. Renganathan, S. Pushpavanam
Janus particles propel themselves by generating concentration gradients along their active surface. This induces a flow near the surface, known as the diffusio-osmotic slip, which…
Inertial migration of an electrophoretic rigid sphere in a two-dimensional Poiseuille flow
A. Choudhary, T. Renganathan, S. Pushpavanam
In this work, we analyze the inertial migration of an electrophoretic particle in a 2-D Poiseuille flow with an electric field applied parallel to the walls. For a thin electrical…
