Elasto-Hydrodynamic Propulsion of a Magnetically Actuated Filament
Sohum Kapadia, Julien Chopin, Arshad Kudrolli
We investigate the low-Reynolds-number propulsion of a slender elastic filament with a dipolar magnetic head actuated by an oscillating field in a viscous fluid by studying its str…

Bundling architecture in elastic filaments with applied twist
Amit Dawadi, Animesh Biswas, Julien Chopin +1
We investigate the formation of helical multifilament bundles and the torque required to achieve them as a function of applied twist. Hyperelastic filaments with circular cross sec…
