The development of artificial microscopic robots, like synthetic microswimmers, is one of the
state-of-the-art research topics due to their promising biomedical applications. The …

The process of swimming at the microscopic scale is successfully described as a finite-
dimensional, nonholonomic control system due to negligible inertia in the low-Reynolds …

We derive a theorem for the lower bound on the energy dissipation rate by a rigid surface-
driven active microswimmer of arbitrary shape in a fluid at a low Reynolds number. We show …

Microswimmers have promising applications in different fields, especially in biomedical
branches, like microsurgery, therapeutic delivery, and driving sperm cells. Many researchers …

Hydrodynamic signatures at the Stokes regime, pertinent to motility of micro-swimmers, have
a long-range nature. This implies that movements of an object in such a viscosity-dominated …

The self-propelled microswimmers have recently attracted considerable attention as model
systems for biological cell migration as well as artificial micromachines. A simple and well …

We unveil orbital topologies of two nearby swimming microorganisms using an artificial
microswimmer, called Quadroar. Depending on the initial conditions of the microswimmers …

In this paper, we study the swimming of a model organism, the so-called Taylor's swimming
sheet, in a viscoelastic fluid close to a solid boundary. This situation comprises natural …

Efficient mixing, typically characterised by chaotic advection, is hard to achieve in low
Reynolds number conditions because of the linear nature of the Stokes equation that …

Copepods are agile microcrustaceans that are capable of maneuvering freely in water.
However, the physical mechanisms driving their rotational motion are not entirely clear in …
