Dynamics of a microsphere inside a spherical cavity with newtonian fluid subjected to periodic contractions

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: R. Castilla et al. from the CATMech-Department of Fluid Mechanics, Universitat Politeu0300cnica de Catalunya, Barcelona, Spain have published the research: Dynamics of a microsphere inside a spherical cavity with Newtonian fluid subjected to periodic contractions, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
• what: In this work hydrodynamic drag forces produced by the surrounding membrane movement and acting on a spherical model of the nucleus are numerically investigated. The model based exclusively on hydrodynamic interaction in a Newtonian fluid shows that pushing-pulling forces on the nucleus produced by periodic contractions of the cell membrane will cause . . .
