Rapidly yawing spheroids in viscous shear flow: emergent loss of symmetry
We investigate the emergent three-dimensional (3D) dynamics of a rapidly yawing spheroidal swimmer interacting with a viscous shear flow. We show that the rapid yawing generates non axisymmetric emergent effects, with the active swimmer behaving as an effective passive particle with two orthogonal p...
