Magnetically powered metachronal waves induce locomotion in self-assemblies
Ylona Collard, Galien Grosjean, Nicolas Vandewalle
When tiny soft ferromagnetic particles are placed along a liquid interface and exposed to a vertical magnetic field, the balance between capillary attraction and magnetic repulsion…
Regimes of motion of magnetocapillary swimmers
Alexander Sukhov, Maxime Hubert, Galien Grosjean +6
The dynamics of a triangular magnetocapillary swimmer is studied using the lattice Boltzmann method. Performing extensive numerical simulations taking into account the coupled dyna…
The Scallop Theorem and Swimming at the Mesoscale
Maxime Hubert, Oleg Trosman, Ylona Collard +4
By synergistically combining modeling, simulation and experiments, we show that there exists a regime of self-propulsion in which the inertia in the fluid dynamics can be separated…
