The Strength of Lower Limbs in Elite Gymnasts and Swimmers

open access: yesCentral European Journal of Sport Sciences and Medicine, 2020
Critical moments during gymnastic exercises are those related to landing and suppressing overloads, transmitted through lower limbs. A swimmer’s lower limbs provide a good body position in the water and maintain the balance.

Stokesian swimmers and active particles

open access: yes, 2015
The net steady state flow pattern of a distorting sphere is studied in the framework of the bilinear theory of swimming at low Reynolds number. It is argued that the starting point of a theory of interacting active particles should be based on such a ...

The Rotating Vicsek Model: Pattern Formation and Enhanced Flocking in Chiral Active Matter

open access: yes, 2017
We generalize the Vicsek model to describe the collective behaviour of polar circle swimmers with local alignment interactions. While the phase transition leading to collective motion in 2D (flocking) occurs at the same interaction to noise ratio as for ...
