Experimental study of anguilliform swimming : application to a biomimetic robot
In order to improve the performance of the submarine robots, the robotics community has been considered a new approach known as the biomimetic. It consist on the study... -
Hydrodynamic interactions and diffusion in vesicle and red blood cell suspens...
Blood is a complex suspension of deformable particles, red blood cells, which exhibits a sophisticated dynamics when flowing in the microvasculature. Most of these... -
Rheological properties of Red Blood Cells
In this work, the rheological properties of human blood are investigated by two different approaches. The flow properties of plasma, the liquid component of blood, is... -
Dynamical Slowdown of Polymers in Laminar and Random Flows
The influence of an external flow on the relaxation dynamics of a single polymer is investigated theoretically and numerically. We show that a pronounced dynamical...
