Thrifty swimming with shear-thinning
David A. Gagnon, Thomas D. Montenegro-Johnson
Microscale propulsion is integral to numerous biomedical systems, for example biofilm formation and human reproduction, where the surrounding fluids comprise suspensions of polymer…
Clustering-induced self-propulsion of isotropic autophoretic particles
Akhil Varma, Thomas D. Montenegro-Johnson, Sebastien Michelin
Self-diffusiophoretic particles exploit local concentration gradients of a solute species in order to self-propel at the micron scale. While an isolated chemically- and geometrical…
Microtransformers: controlled microscale navigation with flexible robots
Thomas D. Montenegro-Johnson
Artificial microswimmers are a new technology with promising microfluidics and biomedical applications, such as directed cargo transport, microscale assembly, and targeted drug del…
