Among several models for microswimmers, the three-sphere microswimmer proposed by
Najafi and Golestanian captures the essential mechanism for the locomotion of a …

Microrheology is an emerging technique that probes mechanical response of soft material at
micro-scale. Generally, microrheology technique can be divided into active and passive …

We discuss the linear hydrodynamic response of a two-dimensional active chiral
compressible fluid with odd viscosity. The viscosity coefficient represents broken time …

We discuss hydrodynamic forces acting on a two-dimensional liquid domain that moves
laterally within a supported fluid membrane in the presence of odd viscosity. Since active …

Onsager's variational principle provides us with a systematic way to derive dynamical
equations for various soft matter and active matter. By reformulating the Onsager-Machlup …

Mechanochemically active enzymes change their shapes within every turnover cycle.
Therefore, they induce circulating flows in the solvent around them and behave as …

Collective and emergent behaviors of active colloids provide useful insights into the
statistical physics of out‐of‐equilibrium systems. Colloidal suspensions containing …

The eukaryotic cell's cytoskeleton is a prototypical example of an active material: objects
embedded within it are driven by molecular motors acting on the cytoskeleton, leading to …

We discuss the hydrodynamic collective effects due to active protein molecules that are
immersed in lipid bilayer membranes and modeled as stochastic force dipoles. We …

There is a growing body of evidences that brain surrogates will be of great interest for
researchers and physicians in the medical field. They are currently mainly used for …
