Squirmer locomotion in a yield stress fluid
Patrick S. Eastham, Hadi Mohammadigoushki, Kourosh Shoele
An axisymmetric squirmer in a Bingham viscoplastic fluid is studied numerically to determine the effect of a yield stress environment on locomotion. The nonlinearity of the governi…
Multiphase modeling of precipitation-induced membrane formation
P. S. Eastham, M. N. J. Moore, N. G. Cogan +2
We formulate a model for the dynamic growth of a membrane developing in a flow as the result of a precipitation reaction, a situation inspired by recent microfluidic experiments. T…
Axisymmetric Squirmers in Stokes Fluid with Nonuniform Viscosity
Patrick S. Eastham, Kourosh Shoele
The ciliary locomotion and feeding of an axisymmetric micro-swimmer in a complex fluid whose viscosity depends on nutrient concentration are investigated numerically. The micro-swi…
