Nonlinear dynamics of a microswimmer in Poiseuille flow.
We study the three-dimensional dynamics of a spherical microswimmer in cylindrical Poiseuille flow which can be mapped onto a Hamiltonian system. Swinging and tumbling trajectories are identified. In 2D they are equivalent to oscillating and circling solutions of a mathematical pendulum. Hydrodynamic interactions between the swimmer and confining channel walls lead to dissipative dynamics and r...
متن کاملErratum: Fission and fusion scenarios for magnetic microswimmer clusters
Nature Communications 7:13519 doi:10.1038/ncomms13519 (2016); Published 22 Nov 2016; Updated 17 Jan 2017 This Article contains an error in Reference 18 that was introduced during the production process. The correct reference should be: Steinbach, G. et al. Stirrers and movers actuated by oscillating fields. Preprint at arXiv:1607.04733 (2016). Reference 18 should have been cited in the second p...
متن کاملA frictionless microswimmer
We investigate the self-locomotion of an elongated microswimmer by virtue of unidirectional tangential surface treadmilling. We show that the propulsion could be almost frictionless, as the microswimmer is propelled forward with the speed of the backward surface motion, i.e. it moves through an almost quiescent fluid. We investigate this swimming technique using the special spheroidal coordinat...
متن کاملFission and fusion scenarios for magnetic microswimmer clusters
Fission and fusion processes of particle clusters occur in many areas of physics and chemistry from subnuclear to astronomic length scales. Here we study fission and fusion of magnetic microswimmer clusters as governed by their hydrodynamic and dipolar interactions. Rich scenarios are found that depend crucially on whether the swimmer is a pusher or a puller. In particular a linear magnetic cha...
متن کاملConserved linear dynamics of single-molecule Brownian motion
Macromolecular diffusion in homogeneous fluid at length scales greater than the size of the molecule is regarded as a random process. The mean-squared displacement (MSD) of molecules in this regime increases linearly with time. Here we show that non-random motion of DNA molecules in this regime that is undetectable by the MSD analysis can be quantified by characterizing the molecular motion rel...
