Helical locomotion in dilute suspensions
Albane Théry, Andres Zambrano, Eric Lauga +1
Motivated by the aim of understanding the effect of media heterogeneity on the swimming dynamics of flagellated bacteria, we study the rotation and swimming of rigid helices in dil…
On-demand microfluidic droplet pinching and splitting under local confinement gradients
Margaux Kerdraon, Albane Théry, Marc Pascual +2
We report the pinching of an elongated liquid droplet that is confined in a rectangular microchannel. The droplet pinching is induced by a local variation of the channel topography…
Enhancement of bacterial rheotaxis in non-Newtonian fluids
Bryan O. Torres Maldonado, Albane Théry, Ran Tao +3
Bacteria often exhibit upstream swimming, which can cause the contamination of biomedical devices and the infection of organs including the urethra or lungs. This process, called r…
Giant enhancement of bacterial upstream swimming in macromolecular flows
Ding Cao, Ran Tao, Albane Théry +3
Many bacteria live in natural and clinical environments with abundant macromolecular polymers. Macromolecular fluids commonly display viscoelasticity and non-Newtonian rheological…
