Numerical and analytical analysis show that the shape of the squirmer affects its swimming performance. Furthermore, enhanced swimming in shear-thinning fluids is observed with increased eccentricity (i.e. pointy squirmers are faster in shear-thinning fluids!).
Drawing inspiration from nature is central to our research approach. But sometimes, we just admire the fall colors!
