155 Hydrodynamics of Active Systems


Description:
This session of contributed talks is focused on the hydrodynamics of "active fluids" comprised of biological (e.g. micro-organisms) or synthetic (e.g. colloids) self-propelled entities immersed in a viscous fluid. We welcome theoretical, experimental, and computational contributions in this rapidly developing area of fluid mechanics.
