Control of Microparticles Through Hydrodynamic Interactions

Henry Shum, Marta Zoppello, Michael Astwood +1

The controllability of passive microparticles that are advected with the fluid flow generated by an actively controlled one is studied. The particles are assumed to be suspended in…

Designing a Magnetic Micro-Robot for Transporting Filamentous Microcargo

Sepehr Ghadami, Henry Shum

In recent years, the medical industry has witnessed a growing interest in minimally invasive procedures, with magnetic microrobots emerging as a promising approach. These micro-rob…

Modeling of uniflagellated bacterial locomotion in unbounded fluid and near a no-slip plane surface

Vahid Nourian, Henry Shum

The accumulation of swimming bacteria near surfaces may lead to biological processes such as biofilm formation and wound infection. Previous experimental observations of Vibrio alg…

Boundary-Bound Reactions: Pattern Formation with and without Hydrodynamics

Aiden Huffman, Henry Shum

We study chemical pattern formation in a fluid between two flat plates and the effect of such patterns on the formation of convective cells. This patterning is made possible by ass…

Entrainment and scattering in microswimmer--colloid interactions

Henry Shum, Julia M. Yeomans

We use boundary element simulations to study the interaction of model microswimmers with a neutrally buoyant spherical particle. The ratio of the size of the particle to that of th…

Fluid transport by individual microswimmers

Dmitri O. Pushkin, Henry Shum, Julia M. Yeomans

We discuss the path of a tracer particle as a microswimmer moves past on an infinite straight trajectory. If the tracer is sufficiently far from the path of the swimmer it moves in…
