Performance of a Helical Microswimmer Traversing a Discrete Viscoelastic Network with Dynamic Remodeling
Microorganisms often navigate a complex environment composed of a viscous fluid with suspended microstructures such as elastic polymers and filamentous networks. These microstructures can have similar length scales to the microorganisms, leading to complex swimming dynamics. Some microorganisms secr...
