We have considered squirmer suspensions embedded in a fluid modeled under a Lattice Boltzmann scheme. We have found that active stresses play a central role to decorrelate the collective motion of squirmers and that contractile squirmers develop significant aggregates.6 p.application/pdfeng(c) Elsevier B.V., 2013Suspensions (Química)HidrodinàmicaTeoria del transportMecànica de fluidsFísica estadísticaBioinformàticaSuspensions (Chemistry)HydrodynamicsTransport theoryFluid mechanicsStatistical physicsBioinformaticsinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article6317112014-02-06info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
