Spontaneous locomotion of a symmetric squirmer
Richard Cobos, Aditya S. Khair, Ory Schnitzer
The squirmer is a popular model to analyse the fluid mechanics of a self-propelled object, such as a micro-organism. We demonstrate that some fore-aft symmetric squirmers can spont…

Non-Brownian diffusion and chaotic rheology of autophoretic disks
R. Kailasham, Aditya S. Khair
The dynamics of a two dimensional autophoretic disk is quantified as a minimal model for the chaotic trajectories undertaken by active droplets. Via direct numerical simulations, w…

Dynamics of forced and unforced autophoretic particles
R. Kailasham, Aditya S. Khair
Chemically active, or autophoretic, particles that isotropically emit or absorb solute molecules undergo spontaneous self-propulsion when their activity is increased beyond a criti…
