Micro swimmer

Autonomous swimming in fluid environments is an important aspect of the life of micro-organisms. Periodic shape changes of cells can induce propulsion. In a conceptual study we explore a minimalist swimmer, which consists of three spheres and moves autonomously. We reveal a connection between the microscopic processes inducing shape change and the effective propulsion of the entire swimmer.
