• Phoretic self-propulsion at finite Péclet numbers (2014, methodology): “The number and position of the points on the radial grid, as well as the number of azimuthal modes used for the solute concentration distribution, are adjusted to the value of the Péclet number [26, 27].”
• Average nutrient uptake by a self-propelled unsteady squirmer (2005, methodology): “(8.5) As in Magar et al. (2003) we see that λ needs to be positive for the concentration at the surface to be smaller than the ambient concentration, and this is true for all (positive) values of the physical constants κ , β ′, D′.”
• Spherical squirmers: models for swimming micro-organisms (2016, methodology): “The above steady problem was solved by Magar et al. (2003) for both boundary conditions; most of the following results are given for the standard boundary condition.”
• Optimal feeding is optimal swimming for all P\'eclet numbers (2011, methodology): “In the Eulerian approach, the organism is modeled as being suspended in a continuous concentration field of nutrients, and the focus is on the absorption flux on the swimmer body [30, 34, 35].”
• Active suspensions and their nonlinear models (2013, methodology): “This so-called “squirmer” model, which was first developed by Lighthill [65] and Blake [66] and later refined by Pedley and coworkers [67,68], is appropriate to model the dynamics of ciliated microorganisms such as Volvox [32,72] or Paramecium, though it has often been used as a generic model for se”
