Here, we demonstrate experimentally that precessing magnetic fields induce metachronal waves on the periphery of these assemblies, similar to the ones observed in ciliates and some arthropods. The outermost layer of particles behaves like an array of cilia or legs whose sequential movement causes a net and controllable locomotion. This bioinspired many-particle swimming strategy is effective even at low Reynolds number, using only spatially uniform fields to generate the waves.","lang":"eng"}],"department":[{"_id":"ScWa"}],"date_created":"2020-06-29T07:59:35Z","user_id":"4359f0d1-fa6c-11eb-b949-802e58b17ae8","oa":1,"oa_version":"Published Version","scopus_import":"1","publisher":"Springer Nature","status":"public","quality_controlled":"1","title":"Magnetically powered metachronal waves induce locomotion in self-assemblies"}
