Colloidal rod dynamics under large amplitude oscillatory extensional flow

Steffen M. Recktenwald, Vincenzo Calabrese, Amy Q. Shen +2

We perform a combined experimental and theoretical investigation of the orientational dynamics of rod-like colloidal particles in dilute suspension as they are subjected to a time-…

Polymer Concentration Regimes from Fractional Microrheology

Amirreza Panahi, Di Pu, Giovanniantonio Natale +1

In this work, a framework for deriving theoretical equations for mean squared displacement (MSD) and fractional Fokker-Planck (FFP) is developed for any arbitrary rheological model…

Dynamics and rheology of 2D colloidal crystals with active anisotropic impurities

Jacob John, Giovanniantonio Natale

Active motion at complex fluid-fluid interfaces is a ubiquitous phenomenon in nature. However, an intriguing question that is not fully addressed is how active motion affects and g…

Spontaneous chiralization of polar active colloids

Marco De Corato, Ignacio Pagonabarraga, Giovanniantonio Natale

Polar active particles constitute a wide class of synthetic colloids that are able to propel along a preferential direction, given by their polar axis. Here, we demonstrate a gener…

Autophoretic locomotion in weakly viscoelastic fluids at finite Péclet number

Giovanniantonio Natale, Charu Datt, Savvas G. Hatzikiriakos +1

In this work, we numerically investigate the dynamics of a self-propelling autophoretic Janus particle in a weakly viscoelastic fluid. The self-propulsion is achieved by an asymmet…

An active particle in a complex fluid

Charu Datt, Giovanniantonio Natale, Savvas G. Hatzikiriakos +1

In this work, we study active particles with prescribed surface velocities in non-Newtonian fluids. We employ the reciprocal theorem to obtain the velocity of an active spherical p…
