The use of machine learning techniques in the development of microscopic swimmers has
drawn considerable attention in recent years. In particular, reinforcement learning has been …

Locomotion of biological and artificial microswimmers has received considerable attention
due to its fundamental biological relevance and promising biomedical applications such as …

A single flexible filament can be actuated to escape from the scallop theorem and generate
net propulsion at low Reynolds number. In this work, we study the dynamics of a simple …

The motion of comoving magnetic microswimmers is modeled by considering the inter-
hydrodynamic interactions (HI) under low Reynolds number conditions. The microswimmer …

For effective treatment of diseases such as cancer or fibrosis, it is essential to deliver
therapeutic agents such as drugs to the diseased tissue, but these diseased sites are …

We investigate the effects of uniform viscosity gradients on the spontaneous oscillations of
an elastic, active filament in viscous fluids. Combining numerical simulations and linear …

The elastohydrodynamic interaction between an elastic filament and its surrounding fluid
was exploited to develop the first microswimmers. These flexible microswimmers are …

Shear-thinning viscosity is a non-Newtonian behaviour that active particles often encounter
in biological fluids such as blood and mucus. The fundamental question of how this …

We propose a finite element method for simulating one-dimensional solid models with finite
thickness and finite length that move and experience large deformations while immersed in …

The emergent magnetic soft guidewires (MSGs) that can be remotely navigated by magnetic
fields hold great promise in minimally invasive endovascular surgery. However, existing …
