Sedimentation of a rigid helix in viscous media
Martina Palusa, Joost de Graaf, Aidan Brown +1
We consider sedimentation of a rigid helical filament in a viscous fluid under gravity. In the Stokes limit, the drag forces and torques on the filament are approximated within the…
Rheology and microrheology of deformable droplet suspensions
M. Foglino, A. N. Morozov, D. Marenduzzo
Dense suspensions of soft colloidal particles display a broad range of physical and rheological properties which are still far from being fully understood. To elucidate the role of…
Dry active turbulence in microtubule-motor mixtures
Ivan Maryshev, Andrew B. Goryachev, Davide Marenduzzo +1
We study the dynamics and phase behaviour of a dry suspension of microtubules and molecular motors. We obtain a set of continuum equations by rigorously coarse graining a microscop…
The mechanism of propulsion of a model microswimmer in a viscoelastic fluid next to a solid boundary
Thomas R. Ives, Alexander Morozov
In this paper we study swimming of a model organism, the so-called Taylor's swimming sheet, in a viscoelastic fluid close to a solid boundary. This situation comprises natural habi…
