Hydrodynamic Behavior of Self-Propelled Particles in a Simple Shear Flow

The hydrodynamic properties of a squirmer type of self-propelled particle in a simple shear flow are investigated using the immersed boundary-lattice Boltzmann method in the range of swimming Reynolds number 0.05 ≤ <i>Re<sub>s</sub></i> ≤ 2.0, flow Reynolds number 40 ≤ <i&...
