Brownian motion near an elastic cell membrane: A theoretical study
Abdallah Daddi-Moussa-Ider, Stephan Gekle
Elastic confinements are an important component of many biological systems and dictate the transport properties of suspended particles under flow. In this chapter, we review the Br…
Cross-stream transport of asymmetric particles driven by oscillating shear
Matthias Laumann, Paul Bauknecht, Stephan Gekle +2
We study the dynamics of asymmetric, deformable particles in oscillatory, linear shear flow. By simulating the motion of a dumbbell, a ring polymer, and a capsule we show that cros…
Non-continuous Froude number scaling for the closure depth of a cylindrical cavity
Stephan Gekle, Arjan van der Bos, Raymond Bergmann +2
A long, smooth cylinder is dragged through a water surface to create a cavity with an initially cylindrical shape. This surface void then collapses due to the hydrostatic pressure,…
