Dynamics of a microswimmer near a curved wall: guided and trapped locomotions
Nima Sharifi-Mood, Pablo G. Díaz-Hyland, Ubaldo M. Córdova-Figueroa
We propose a combined analytical-numerical strategy to predict the dynamics and trajectory of a microswimmer next to a curved spherical obstacle. The microswimmer is actuated by a…
Capillary Assembly of Colloids: Interactions on Planar and Curved Interfaces
Iris B. Liu, Nima Sharifi-Mood, Kathleen J. Stebe
In directed assembly, small building clocks are assembled into an organized structures under the influence of guiding fields. Capillary interactions provide a versatile route for s…
Elastocapillary driven assembly of particles at free-standing smectic-A films
Mohamed Amine Gharbi, Daniel A. Beller, Nima Sharifi-Mood +4
Colloidal particles at complex fluid interfaces and within films assemble to form ordered structures with high degrees of symmetry via interactions that include capillarity, elasti…
Curvature capillary repulsion
Iris B. Liu, Giulia Bigazzi, Nima Sharifi-Mood +2
Directed assembly of colloids is an exciting field in materials science to form structures with new symmetries and responses. Fluid interfaces have been widely exploited to make de…
