📢 New paper in Physical Review Letters In collaboration with Marco, we show how fluid rheology (anisotropy and elasticity) affects self-propelled motion of microswimmers in confined domains. Cooperativity of Confined Nematic Microswimmers: From One to Many journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/1…

Our recent work on vortex interaction with perforated plate is out now in Physical Review Fluids PRF! Vortex splitting into jets -- vorticity cancellation -- vortex reformation. Fascinating stuff. Paper link: lnkd.in/gZ5hYCPq

Dr. R. Kuppuraj, an ex PhD student of our lab is set to join University of Manchester as an Assistant Professor from July 2025. He specialised in swirling flows, sprays and vortex-drop interactions. He got INAE innovative phd thesis award and a Marie Curie Fellowship.

Me and Aloke representing IISc and India for zero gravity campaign at Novespace. This is pre flight experimental preparations in collaboration with Prof Brutin. The work looks at droplet wetting under Microgravity conditions IISc Bangalore IISc Mechanical Engineering Basu Lab Aloke Kumar

Microgravity in a plane. It was wild adventure and great science 😇😇

Full video of me doing experiments in microgravity on a parabolic flight campaign. More videos show Aloke and David doing the same. Basu Lab IISc Bangalore IISc Mechanical Engineering youtu.be/46jtvPY3cbA
