Hydrodynamic interaction of two deformable torque swimmers
TL;DR: This study investigates hydrodynamic interactions between two deformable microswimmers and quantifies the membrane tension during the interaction, and provides a theoretical basis for investigating a mechanical picture of the biological reactions of ciliates.

TL;DR: By solving the convection-diffusion equation in the frame of the moving rod, it was found that the interfacial tension force scales approximately as SR(2)gamma/muDL, where S is the area-normalized oxygen evolution rate, gamma is the liquid-vapor interfacial pressure, R is the rod radius, mu is the viscosity, D is the diffusion coefficient of oxygen, and L is the length of the rod.
