X01.00001: Chemically-active drops swimming near a wall Invited Speaker: Sébastien Michelin Active drops are synthetic, isotropic, micron-sized “swimmers” that emit or absorb chemical solutes. Solutal gradients drive interfacial flows and the solute’s own convective transport. If solute diffusion is small, the nonlinear coupling of the fluid flow and solute transport around the drop can cause a spontaneous symmetry-breaking, leading to sustained interfacial flows and “swimming” of the drop. |
