Sperms have attracted attention of many researchers since it was discovered by Antonie van
Leeuwenhoek in 1677. Though a small cell, its every part has complex structure and …

The omnipresence of fluid–structure interaction (FSI) in biological systems is indisputable—
from the vibration of leaves to the locomotion of fish, to the flying of birds, and to the …

The propulsive efficiency and biodegradability of wireless microrobots play a significant role
in facilitating promising biomedical applications. Mimicking biological matters is a promising …

Due to its biological importance in the fertilization process, the swimming of a solitary
spermatozoon has been investigated intensively. However, the elasto-hydrodynamic …

In this study, first-order slip effect with viscous dissipation and thermal radiation in micropolar
fluid on a linear shrinking sheet is considered. Mathematical formulations of the governing …

Thrombotic cardiovascular diseases are a prevalent factor contributing to both physical
impairment and mortality. Thrombolysis and ischemic mitigation have emerged as leading …

A finite-volume method based on the OpenFOAM is used to numerically study the factors
affecting the migration of viscoelastic droplets on rigid surfaces with wettability gradients …

The swimming forces exerted by mammalian spermatozoa during the pathway to the ovary
and during the interaction with the oocyte are thought to play a fundamental role in the …

The effects of surface wettability and viscoelasticity on the dynamics of liquid droplets under
an electric field are studied experimentally. A needle-plate electrode system is used as the …

Dave Garbers' work significantly contributed to our understanding of sperm's regulated
motility, capacitation, and the acrosome reaction. These key sperm functions involve …
