Confined floating active carpets generate coherent vortical flows that enhance transport
Felipe A. Barros, Italo Salas, Enkeleida Lushi +1
Slicks are thin viscous films that can be found at the air--water interface of water bodies such as lakes, rivers and oceans. These micro-layers are enriched in surfactants, organi…
Micro-swimmer locomotion and hydrodynamics in Brinkman Flows
Francisca Guzman-Lastra, Enkeleida Lushi
Micro-swimmer locomotion in heterogeneous media is increasingly relevant in biological physics due to the prevalence of microorganisms in complex environments. A model for such por…
Micro-swimmer collective dynamics in Brinkman flows
Yasser Almoteri, Enkeleida Lushi
Suspensions of swimming micro-organisms are known to undergo intricate collective dynamics as a result of hydrodynamic and collision interactions. Micro-swimmers, such as bacteria…
Periodic and chaotic orbits of plane-confined micro-rotors in creeping flows
Enkeleida Lushi, Petia M. Vlahovska
We explore theoretically the complex dynamics and emergent behaviors of spinning spheres immersed in viscous fluid. The particles are coupled to each-other via the fluid in which t…
