Shear-induced bimodality and stability analysis of chiral spheroidal swimmers
Mohammad Reza Shabanniya, Amir Abbasi, Arghavan Partovifard +1
We study the shear-induced behavior of chiral (circle-swimming) and nonchiral swimmers in a planar channel subjected to Poiseuille (pressure-driven) flow. The swimmers are modeled…
Brownian noise effects on magnetic focusing of prolate and oblate spheroids in channel flow
Mohammad Reza Shabanniya, Ali Naji
We investigate Brownian noise effects on magnetic focusing of prolate and oblate spheroids carrying permanent magnetic dipoles in channel (Poiseuille) flow subject to a uniform mag…
Drag force on cylindrical intruders in granular media: Experimental study of lateral vs axial intrusion and high grain-polydispersity effects
Salar Abbasi Aghda, Ali Naji
We report on experimentally measured drag force experienced by a solid cylinder penetrating a granular bed of glass beads including, specifically, a highly polydisperse sample with…
Active osmotic-like pressure on permeable inclusions
Mahmoud Sebtosheikh, Ali Naji
We use a standard minimal active Brownian model to investigate the osmotic-like effective pressure generated by active fluids on fixed hollow inclusions. These inclusions are enclo…
Non-Markovian modeling of non-equilibrium fluctuations and dissipation in active viscoelastic biomatter
Amir Abbasi, Roland R. Netz, Ali Naji
Based on a Hamiltonian that incorporates the elastic coupling between a tracer and active particles, we derive a generalized Langevin model for the non-equilibrium mechanical respo…
Rectification of polymer translocation through nanopores by chiral and nonchiral active particles
Zahra Fazli, Ali Naji
We study unbiased translocation of a flexible polymer chain through a membrane pore under the influence of active noise and steric exclusion using Langevin dynamics simulations. Th…
