Hydrodynamic bound states of rotating micro-cylinders in a confining geometry
Hanliang Guo, Yi Man, Hai Zhu
Many micro-swimmers propel themselves by rotating micro-cylindrical organelles such as flagella or cilia. These cylindrical organelles almost never live in free space, yet their mo…
Optimal slip velocities of micro-swimmers with arbitrary axisymmetric shapes
Hanliang Guo, Hai Zhu, Ruowen Liu +2
This article presents a computational approach for determining the optimal slip velocities on any given shape of an axisymmetric micro-swimmer suspended in a viscous fluid. The obj…
Simulating cilia-driven mixing and transport in complex geometries
Hanliang Guo, Hai Zhu, Shravan Veerapaneni
Cilia and flagella are self-actuated microtubule-based structures that are present on many cell surfaces, ranging from the outer surface of single-cell organisms to the internal ep…
Instability-driven Oscillations of Elastic Microfilaments
Feng Ling, Hanliang Guo, Eva Kanso
Cilia and flagella are highly conserved slender organelles that exhibit a variety of rhythmic beating patterns from non-planar cone-like motions to planar wave-like deformations. A…
Bistability in the synchronization of actuated microfilaments
Hanliang Guo, Lisa Fauci, Michael Shelley +1
Cilia and flagella are essential building blocks for biological fluid transport and locomotion at the micron scale. They often beat in synchrony and may transition between differen…
Mucociliary Transport in Healthy and Diseased Environments
Hanliang Guo, Eva Kanso
Mucociliary clearance in the lung is the primary defense mechanism that protects the airways from inhaled toxicants and infectious agents. The system consists of a viscoelastic muc…
