The Hydrodynamic Study of Swimming Microorganisms and Numerical Simulation of Micro-swimmers Using Computational Fluid Dynamics, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Abasspour, Majid (Supervisor) ; Mahdigholi, Hamid (Supervisor)
Abstract
The design, optimization, and construction of systems that are capable of swimming in the low Reynolds conditions are urgently needed in the light of the recent human, medical, industrial and scientific needs. Therefore, it is necessary to inspire the movement of microorganisms to design and construct artificial micro swimmer as well as to achieve the best geometry for swimming. In order to achieve the optimum microstructure geometry, it is necessary to know the behavior and hydrodynamic interactions of the micro swimmer with the fluid and its outer channel. In this study, we numerically simulate the movement of a microorganism with a spiral tail in a circular channel using Computational...
