    • A two-sphere model for bacteria swimming near solid surfaces 
      Dunstan, Jocelyn; Miño, Gastón; Clement, Eric; Soto Bertrán, Rodrigo (AMER INST PHYSICS, 2012-01)
      We present a simple model for bacteria like Escherichia coil swimming near solid surfaces. It consists of two spheres of different radii connected by a dragless rod. The effect of the flagella is taken into account by ...
    • Enhanced Diffusion due to Active Swimmers at a Solid Surface 
      Miño, Gastón; Mallouk, Thomas E.; Darnige, Thierry; Hoyos, Mauricio; Dauchet, Jeremy; Dunstan, Jocelyn; Soto Bertrán, Rodrigo; Wang, Yang; Rousselet, Annie; Clement, Eric (AMER PHYSICAL SOC, 2011-01-25)
      We consider two systems of active swimmers moving close to a solid surface, one being a living population of wild-type E. coli and the other being an assembly of self-propelled Au-Pt rods. In both situations, we have ...
