Flexibility of undulating magnetic microbeads swimmers
This study uses the effect of flexibility on the propulsive efficiency of swimmers that consist of superparamagnetic particles and which are subjected to an oscillating field to control the movement in a low Reynolds number environment. To achieve nonreciprocal motion for a flexible swimmer using a...
