A scalable computational platform for particulate Stokes suspensions
Wen Yan, Eduardo Corona, Dhairya Malhotra +2
We describe a computational framework for simulating suspensions of rigid particles in Newtonian Stokes flow. One central building block is a collision-resolution algorithm that ov…
Relating microswimmer synthesis to rheotactic tunability
Quentin Brosseau, Florencio Balboa Usabiaga, Enkeleida Lushi +5
We explore the behavior of micron-scale autophoretic Janus (Au/Pt) rods, having various Au/Pt length ratios, swimming near a wall in an imposed background flow. We find that their…
Dynamics of flexible fibers in viscous flows and fluids
O. du Roure, A. Lindner, E. N. Nazockdast +1
The dynamics and deformations of immersed flexible fibers are at the heart of important industrial and biological processes, induce peculiar mechanical and transport properties in…
Lattices of hydrodynamically interacting flapping swimmers
Anand U. Oza, Leif Ristroph, Michael J. Shelley
Fish schools and bird flocks exhibit complex collective dynamics whose self-organization principles are largely unknown. The influence of hydrodynamics on such collectives has been…
Fast crystallization of rotating membrane proteins
Naomi Oppenheimer, David B. Stein, Michael J. Shelley
We examine the interactions between actively rotating proteins moving in a membrane. Experimental evidence suggests that such rotor proteins, like the ATP synthases of the inner mi…
Coarse-graining the dynamics of immersed and driven fiber assemblies
David B. Stein, Michael J. Shelley
An important class of fluid-structure problems involve the dynamics of ordered arrays of immersed, flexible fibers. While specialized numerical methods have been developed to study…
