Universal Scaling Laws for a Generic Swimmer Model
Bruno Ventéjou, Thibaut Métivet, Aurélie Dupont +1
We have developed a minimal model of a swimmer without body deformation based on force and torque dipoles which allows accurate 3D Navier-Stokes calculations. Our model can reprodu…

Randomly stacked open-cylindrical shells as a functional mechanical device
Tomohiko G. Sano, Emile Hohnadel, Toshiyuki Kawata +2
Structures with artificial mechanical properties, often called mechanical metamaterials, exhibit divergent yet tunable performance. Various types of mechanical metamaterials have b…

Diffusion-redistanciation schemes for 2D and 3D constrained Willmore flow: application to the equilibrium shapes of vesicles
Thibaut Metivet, Arnaud Sengers, Mourad Ismaïl +1
In this paper we present a novel algorithm for simulating geometrical flows, and in particular the Willmore flow, with conservation of volume and area. The idea is to adapt the cla…
