Granular matter is ubiquitous in nature and is present in diverse forms in important
engineering, industrial and natural processes. Particle-based computational modelling has …

The simplicity of hard spheres as a model system is deceptive. Although the particles
interact solely through volume exclusion, that nevertheless suffices for a wealth of static and …

We develop a probabilistic Stokes flow framework, using physics informed Gaussian
processes, which can be used to solve both forward/inverse flow problems with missing …

We describe an immersed boundary method in which the fluid–structure coupling is
achieved in an Eulerian framework. The method is an improved extension of the immersed …

Microswimmers often use chirality to generate translational movement from rotation motion,
exhibiting distinct behaviors in complex fluids compared to simple Newtonian fluids …

This study presents the application of the smoothed profile (SP) method to perform direct
numerical simulations for the motion of both passive and active “squirming” particles in …

We theoretically and computationally study the low-Reynolds-number hydrodynamics of a
linear active microswimmer surfing on a compressible thin fluid layer characterized by an …

Transport of material across liquid interfaces is ubiquitous for living cells and is also a crucial
step in drug delivery and in many industrial processes. The fluids that are present on either …

Few simulations exist for microswimmers near deformable interfaces. Here, we present
numerical simulations of the hydrodynamic flows associated with a single microswimmer …

Microswimmers can acquire information on the surrounding fluid by sensing mechanical
queues. They can then navigate in response to these signals. We analyze this navigation by …
