Confined floating active carpets generate coherent vortical flows that enhance transport
Felipe A. Barros, Italo Salas, Enkeleida Lushi +1
Slicks are thin viscous films that can be found at the air--water interface of water bodies such as lakes, rivers and oceans. These micro-layers are enriched in surfactants, organi…
Micro-swimmer locomotion and hydrodynamics in Brinkman Flows
Francisca Guzman-Lastra, Enkeleida Lushi
Micro-swimmer locomotion in heterogeneous media is increasingly relevant in biological physics due to the prevalence of microorganisms in complex environments. A model for such por…
Active Carpets in floating viscous films
Felipe A. Barros, Hugo N. Ulloa, Gabriel Aguayo +2
Earth's aquatic environments are inherently stratified layered systems where interfaces between layers serve as ecological niches for microbial swimmers, forming colonies known as…
Towards an analytical description of active microswimmers in clean and in surfactant-covered drops
Alexander R. Sprenger, Vaseem A. Shaik, Arezoo M. Ardekani +6
Geometric confinements are frequently encountered in the biological world and strongly affect the stability, topology, and transport properties of active suspensions in viscous flo…
