Negative optical torque is a counterintuitive optomechanical phenomenon that can emerge
in light-assembled nanoparticle (NP) clusters (ie, optical matter) under circular polarization …

A solid body in a viscous fluid undergoing oscillatory motion naturally produces a steady
secondary flow due to convective inertia. This phenomenon is embodied in the streaming …

How fast must an oriented collection of extensile swimmers swim to escape the instability of
viscous active suspensions? We show that the answer lies in the dimensionless …

By comparing theoretical modeling, simulations, and experiments, we show that there exists
a swimming regime at low Reynolds numbers solely driven by the inertia of the swimmer …

In Stokes flow, Purcell's scallop theorem forbids objects with time-reversible (reciprocal)
swimming strokes from moving. In the presence of inertia, this restriction is eased and …

When two spherical particles submerged in a viscous fluid are subjected to an oscillatory
flow, they align themselves perpendicular to the direction of the flow leaving a small gap …

The development of multifunctional and biocompatible microrobots for biomedical
applications relies on achieving controllable locomotion. Here we describe the conditions …

Isomorphs are curves in the thermodynamic phase diagram of invariant excess entropy,
structure, and dynamics, while pseudoisomorphs are curves of invariant structure and …

We present a versatile perturbative calculation scheme to determine the leading-order
correction to the mobility matrix for particles in a low-Reynolds-number fluid with spatially …

We computationally studied the pairwise hydrodynamic interactions for simple two-
dimensional dimer model swimmers over a range of intermediate Reynolds numbers (Re) …
