Navigation of a Three-Link Microswimmer via Deep Reinforcement Learning
Yuyang Lai, Sina Heydari, On Shun Pak +1
Motile microorganisms develop effective swimming gaits to adapt to complex biological environments. Translating this adaptability to smart microrobots presents significant challeng…
Trapping microswimmers in acoustic streaming flow
Xuyang Sun, Wenchang Tan, Yi Man
The acoustofluidic method holds great promise for manipulating microorganisms. When exposed to the steady vortex structures of acoustic streaming flow, these microorganisms exhibit…
Nutrient Transport in Concentration Gradients
Jingyi Liu, Yi Man, Eva Kanso
Sessile ciliates attach to substrates and generate feeding currents to capture passing particulates and dissolved nutrients. Optimal ciliary activity that maximizes nutrient flux a…
Self-diffusiophoretic propulsion of a spheroidal particle in a shear-thinning fluid
Guangpu Zhu, Brandon van Gogh, Lailai Zhu +2
Shear-thinning viscosity is a non-Newtonian behaviour that active particles often encounter in biological fluids such as blood and mucus. The fundamental question of how this ubiqu…
Evaluating Evasion Strategies in Zebrafish Larvae
Yusheng Jiao, Brendan Colvert, Yi Man +2
An effective evasion strategy allows prey to survive encounters with predators. Prey are generally thought to escape in a direction that is either random or serves to maximize the…
