Hydrodynamics of the double-wave structure of insect spermatozoa flagella
On Shun Pak, Saverio E. Spagnolie, Eric Lauga
In addition to conventional planar and helical flagellar waves, insect sperm flagella have also been observed to display a double-wave structure characterized by the presence of tw…
Hydrodynamics of self-propulsion near a boundary: predictions and accuracy of far-field approximations
Saverio E. Spagnolie, Eric Lauga
The swimming trajectories of self-propelled organisms or synthetic devices in a viscous fluid can be altered by hydrodynamic interactions with nearby boundaries. We explore a multi…
Elastocapillary self-folding: buckling, wrinkling and collapse of floating filaments
Arthur A. Evans, Saverio E. Spagnolie, Denis Bartolo +1
When a flexible filament is confined to a fluid interface, the balance between capillary attraction, bending resistance, and tension from an external source can lead to a self-buck…
