Vertical motion of a periodically driven floating disc

Anand U. Oza, Jack-William Barotta, Eli Silver +1

We present the results of a combined theoretical and experimental investigation into the vertical dynamics of floating discs subjected to an imposed time-periodic forcing. The axis…

Traveling waves in a continuum model of schooling swimmers

Anand U. Oza, Eva Kanso, Michael J. Shelley

The complex formations exhibited by schooling fish have long been the object of fascination for biologists and physicists. However, the physical and sensory mechanisms leading to o…

Exponential mixing in a hydrodynamic pilot--wave theory with singular potentials

Hung D. Nguyen, Anand U. Oza

We conduct an analysis of a stochastic hydrodynamic pilot-wave theory, which is a Langevin equation with a memory kernel that describes the dynamics of a walking droplet (or "walke…

Theoretical modeling of capillary surfer interactions on a vibrating fluid bath

Anand U. Oza, Giuseppe Pucci, Ian Ho +1

We present and analyze a theoretical model for the dynamics and interactions of "capillary surfers," which are millimetric objects that self-propel while floating at the interface…

The invariant measure of a walking droplet in hydrodynamic pilot-wave theory

Hung D. Nguyen, Anand U. Oza

We study the long time statistics of a walker in a hydrodynamic pilot-wave system, which is a stochastic Langevin dynamics with an external potential and memory kernel. While prior…

Generalization of waving-plate theory to multiple interacting swimmers

Peter J. Baddoo, Nicholas J. Moore, Anand U. Oza +1

Early research in aerodynamics and biological propulsion was dramatically advanced by the analytical solutions of Theodorsen, von Kármán, Wu and others. While these classical solut…
