Living droplets with mesoscale swimmers
L. Malik, N. Sharadhi, C. Prêcheur Llarena +5
We study the activity of 'living' droplets, which confine tens of swimming meso-organisms in 3D using a superhydrophobic substrate. With few swimmers, the droplet oscillates at its…

Flow-induced bending response rheometer to measure viscoelastic bending of microrods
Barrett T Smith, Michal Czerepaniak, Maciej Lisicki +1
Soft, microscale hydrogel fibers and rods play important roles in tissue engineering, flexible electronics, soft robotics, drug delivery, sensors, and other applications. Their vis…

Twist and turn. Elastohydrodynamics of microscale active fibres
Maciej Lisicki
Cellular locomotion often involves the motion of thin, elastic filaments, such as cilia and flagella, in viscous environments. The manuscript serves as a general introduction to th…
