Abstract

Dynamics of micro-swimmers in turbulent flow is a fundamental physical problem, which helps use understand the motion of microorganisms in complex flow environment, or the motion of artificial micro- or nano-robots. We use direct numerical simulation of investigate related problems. Due to the nature of computational fluid dynamics, massive storage is required.
