  • Answers for sheet 3
  • Answers for sheet 4
  • Some interesting or topical papers related to topics in the course

  • First paper on 3-sphere nanobot swimmer
  • Simulation of Diffusion Limited Aggregation
  • For curiosity: a detailed an up to date review of snowflake formation.
  • Key paper on energy for stretching a wormlike chain. Equation 7 is the main result, quoted in the overheads.
  • Key paper on hydrodynamic correlation of two particles held in optical traps - related to question sheet exercise.
