Optimal free-surface pumping by an undulating carpet

Anupam Pandey, Zih-Yin Chen, Jisoo Yuk +5

Examples of fluid flows driven by undulating boundaries are found in nature across many different length scales. Even though different driving mechanisms have evolved in distinct e…

Can the self-propulsion of anisotropic microswimmers be described by using forces and torques?

Borge ten Hagen, Raphael Wittkowski, Daisuke Takagi +3

The self-propulsion of artificial and biological microswimmers (i.e., active colloidal particles) has often been modelled by using a force and a torque entering into the overdamped…

Gravitaxis of asymmetric self-propelled colloidal particles

Borge ten Hagen, Felix Kümmel, Raphael Wittkowski +3

Many motile microorganisms adjust their swimming motion relative to the gravitational field and thus counteract sedimentation to the ground. This gravitactic behavior is often the…

Reply to Comment on "Circular Motion of Asymmetric Self-Propelling Particles"

Felix Kümmel, Borge ten Hagen, Raphael Wittkowski +6

In a Comment [Phys. Rev. Lett. 113, 029801 (2014)] on our Letter on self-propelled asymmetric particles [Phys. Rev. Lett. 110, 198302 (2013); arXiv:1302.5787], Felderhof claims tha…

Hydrodynamic capture of microswimmers into sphere-bound orbits

Daisuke Takagi, Jeremie Palacci, Adam B. Braunschweig +2

Self-propelled particles can exhibit surprising non-equilibrium behaviors, and how they interact with obstacles or boundaries remains an important open problem. Here we show that c…
