Fluid flow in the sarcomere
Sage A Malingen, Kaitlyn Hood, Eric Lauga +2
A highly organized and densely packed lattice of molecular machinery within the sarcomeres of muscle cells powers contraction. Although many of the proteins that drive contraction…
Marine crustaceans with hairy appendages: role of hydrodynamic boundary layers in sensing and feeding
Kaitlyn Hood, M. S. Suryateja Jammalamadaka, A. E. Hosoi
Decapod crustaceans have appendages with an array of rigid hairs covered in chemo-receptors, used to sense and track food. Crustaceans directly influence the flow behavior by chang…
Dynamic Sealing Using Magneto-Rheological Fluids
Youzhi Liang, Jose R. Alvarado, Karl D. Iagnemma +1
Micropumps are microfluidic components which are widely used in applications such as chemical analysis, biological sensing and micro-robots. However, one obstacle in developing mic…
Passive phloem loading and long-distance transport in a synthetic tree-on-a-chip
Jean Comtet, Kaare H. Jensen, Robert Turgeon +2
Vascular plants rely on differences of osmotic pressure to export sugars from regions of synthesis (mature leaves) to sugar sinks (roots, fruits). In this process, known as Münch p…
Fast, large amplitude vibrations of compliant cylindrical shells carrying a fluid
Pawel Zimoch, Eliott Tixier, Julia Hsu +2
In this fluid dynamics video, we demonstrate the first three circumferential modes of fast, large amplitude vibrations of compliant cylindrical shells carrying a fluid.
A two-dimensional model of low-Reynolds number swimming beneath a free surface
Darren Crowdy, Sungyon Lee, Ophir Samson +2
Biological organisms swimming at low Reynolds number are often influenced by the presence of rigid boundaries and soft interfaces. In this paper we present an analysis of locomotio…
