Hydrodynamic interaction of a self-propelling particle with a wall: Comparison between an active Janus particle and a squirmer model
Zaiyi Shen, Alois Würger, Juho S. Lintuvuori
Using lattice Boltzmann simulations we study the hydrodynamics of an active spherical particle near a no-slip wall. We develop a computational model for an active Janus particle, b…
Hydrodynamics defines the stable swimming direction of spherical squirmers in a nematic liquid crystal
Juho S. Lintuvuori, Alois Würger, Kevin Stratford
We present a study of the hydrodynamics of an active particle, a model squirmer, in an envi- ronment with a broken rotational symmetry: a nematic liquid crystal. By combining simul…
Nanoscale Seebeck effect at hot metal nanostructures
Aboubakry Ly, Arghya Majee, Alois Würger
We theoretically study the electrolyte Seebeck effect in the vicinity of a heated metal nanostructure, such as the cap of an active Janus colloid in an electrolyte, or gold- coated…
