Recent studies on viscous streaming flows in two dimensions have elucidated the impact of body curvature variations on resulting flow topology and dynamics, with opportunities for microfluidic applications. Following that, we present here a three-dimensional characterization of streaming flows as function of changes in body geometry and topology, starting from the well-known case of a sphere to progressively arrive at toroidal shapes. We leverage direct numerical simulations and dynamical… Expand

Simulations of single and multiple swimmers with non-divergence free deforming geometries
TLDR
A vortex particle method coupled with a penalization technique to simulate single and multiple swimmers in an incompressible, viscous flow in two and three dimensions and can handle arbitrarily deforming bodies and their corresponding non-divergence free deformation velocity fields is presented.

TLDR
It is found that the swimming speed obtained from both experiment and simulation agree and collapse onto a single curve if plotted as a function of the streaming Reynolds number, suggesting that the propulsion of a neutrally buoyant swimmer is related to streaming flows. Expand
