Canonical orbits for rapidly deforming planar microswimmers in shear flow

Classically, the rotation of ellipsoids in shear Stokes flow is captured by Jeffery’s orbits. Here, we demonstrate that Jeffery’s orbits also describe high-frequency shape-deforming swimmers moving in the plane of a shear flow, employing only basic properties of Stokes flow and a multiple-scales asy...
