    • An optimal control approach to ciliary locomotion 
      San Martín Hermosilla, Jorge; Takahashi, Takéo; Tucsnak, Marius (American Institute of Mathematical Sciences, 2016)
      We consider a class of low Reynolds number swimmers, of prolate spheroidal shape, which can be seen as simplified models of ciliated microorganisms. Within this model, the form of the swimmer does not change, the propelling ...
    • Analysis of a Simplified Model of Rigid Structure Floating in a Viscous Fluid 
      Maity, Debayan; San Martín, Jorge; Takahashi, Takéo; Tucsnak, Marius (Springer New York LLC, 2019)
      We study the interaction of surface water waves with a floating solid constraint to move only in the vertical direction. The first novelty we bring in is that we propose a new model for this interaction, taking into ...
