متن کاملPurcell magneto-elastic swimmer controlled by an external magnetic field
This paper focuses on the mechanism of propulsion of a Purcell swimmer whose segments are magnetized and react to an external magnetic field applied into the fluid. By an asymptotic analysis, we prove that it is possible to steer the swimmer along a chosen direction when the control functions are prescribed as an oscillating field. Moreover, we discuss what are the main obstructions to overcome...
متن کاملHelical beating of actuated elastic filament
A possible propulsion mechanism at low Reynolds number is the rotation of a flexible filament, tilted with respect to its rotation axis. Using a simple linear model, we establish the non linear torque-force relations for two torque-driven actuation modes. When the rotation of the filament is induced by two perpendicular transverse oscillating torques, the propulsive force increases monotonicall...
متن کاملOn the Stability of an Electrostatically-Actuated Functionally Graded Magneto-Electro-Elastic Micro-Beams Under Magneto-Electric Conditions
In this paper, the stability of a functionally graded magneto-electro-elastic (FG-MEE) micro-beam under actuation of electrostatic pressure is studied. For this purpose Euler-Bernoulli beam theory and constitutive relations for magneto-electro-elastic (MEE) materials have been used. We have supposed that material properties vary exponentially along the thickness direction of the micro-beam. Gov...
متن کاملPassive and Self-Propelled Locomotion of an Elastic Swimmer in a Perfect Fluid
In this paper we are interested in studying the free motion of a hyperelastic body (also called swimmer) immersed in a perfect fluid. We derive the Euler-Lagrange equations from the Least Action Principle of Lagrangian Mechanics and prove that they are well-posed when the number of elastic modes is finite. The recourse to a strain energy density function in the modeling allows many different co...
