Mixing and transport by ciliary carpets: a numerical study
Yang Ding, Janna Nawroth, Margaret McFall-Ngai +1
We use a 3D computational model to study the fluid transport and mixing due to the beating of an infinite array of cilia. In accord with recent experiments, we observe two distinct…
Coins falling in water
Luke Heisinger, Paul K Newton, Eva Kanso
When a coin falls in water, its trajectory is one of four types determined by its dimensionless moment of inertia and Reynolds number Re: (A) steady; (B) fluttering; (C) c…
Dipole interactions in doubly-periodic domains
Alan Cheng Hou Tsang, Eva Kanso
We consider the interactions of finite dipoles in a doubly-periodic domain. A finite dipole is a pair of equal and opposite strength point vortices separated by a finite distance.…
Stability of Underwater Periodic Locomotion
Fangxu Jing, Eva Kanso
Most aquatic vertebrates swim by lateral flapping of their bodies and caudal fins. While much effort has been devoted to understanding the flapping kinematics and its influence on…
