Chirotactic response of microswimmers in fluids with odd viscosity
Odd viscosity is a property of chiral active fluids with broken time-reversal and parity
symmetries. We show that the flow of such a fluid around a rotating axisymmetric body is …

Mixing in stratified fluids

We find the mixing induced by a small swimming organism in a density stratified fluid. We
model the swimmer as a spherical squirmer and quantify mixing through a mixing efficiency …
