Translation of a spherical viscous drop driven by localized forcing in Stokes flow
Sho Kawakami, Yuan-Nan Young, Howard A. Stone
Localized forcing in the fluid inside or outside a viscous drop can drive drop translation. Using the Lorentz reciprocal theorem, we derive an integral expression for the translati…
Stability and equilibria of a compressible elastic membrane in Stokes flow
Sho Kawakami, Han Zhou, Po-Chun Kuo +2
We formulate a continuum model for a compressible lipid-bilayer membrane immersed in Stokes flow, replacing exact local area inextensibility by conservation of an areal phospholipi…
Effects of surface viscosities on the motion of a droplet enclosing a translating particle
Ali Gürbüz, Hervé Nganguia, Guangpu Zhu +3
We investigate the influence of interfacial rheology on the motion of a compound particle consisting of a viscous droplet enclosing a translating rigid particle in the Stokes flow…
Collinear Swimming of a Squirmer Pair in Newtonian and Shear-Thinning Fluids
Chih-Tang Liao, Ali Gürbüz, Victor Bueno Garcia +3
Pairwise hydrodynamic interactions of microswimmers form the fundamental building blocks for understanding their more complex collective behaviors. In this work, we revisit the can…
Soft-Lubrication Drainage and Rupture in Particle-Driven Vesicles
Yuan-Nan Young, Bryan Quaife, Herve Nganguia +3
The deformation and rupture of a lipid vesicle due to the forced normal approach of an inclusion are essential for optimizing the design of magnetic giant unilamellar vesicles [mag…
Modeling and Simulation of Open Membranes in Stokes Flow with Mixed-Dimensional Coupling
Han Zhou, Yuan-Nan Young, Yoichiro Mori
In this work, we present a mathematical and computational framework to model the dynamics of open lipid bilayer membranes interacting with ambient Stokes flow. The model explicitly…
Hydrodynamic interactions between a sedimenting squirmer and a planar wall
Henry Shum, Devenayagam Palaniappan, Yuan-Nan Young
The hydrodynamic interactions between a sedimenting microswimmer and a solid wall have ubiquitous biological and technological applications. A plethora of gravity-induced swimming…
Hydrodynamics of Multicomponent Vesicles Under Strong Confinement
Ashley Gannon, Bryan Quaife, Y. -N. Young
We numerically investigate the hydrodynamics and membrane dynamics of multicomponent vesicles in two strongly confined geometries. This serves as a simplified model for red blood c…
From Electrodiffusion Theory to the Electrohydrodynamics of Leaky Dielectrics through the Weak Electrolyte Limit
Yoichiro Mori, Yuan-Nan Young
The Taylor-Melcher (TM) model is the standard model for describing the dynamics of poorly conducting leaky dielectric fluids under an electric field. The TM model treats the fluids…
