Metachronal waves in a chain of rowers with hydrodynamic interactions [PDF]
arXiv, 2010 Filaments on the surface of a microorganism such as Paramecium or Ophalina beat highly synchronized and form so-called metachronal waves that travel along the surfaces. In order to study under what principal conditions these waves form, we introduce a chain of beads, called rowers, each periodically driven by an external force on a straight line ...

Current-mediated synchronization of a pair of beating non-identical flagella
, 2019 The basic phenomenology of experimentally observed synchronization (i.e., a stochastic phase locking) of identical, beating flagella of a biflagellate alga is known to be captured well by a minimal model describing the dynamics of coupled, limit-cycle ...

Waving transport and propulsion in a generalized Newtonian fluid [PDF]
Journal of Non-Newtonian Fluid Mechanics, Volume 199, September
2013, Pages 37-50, 2014 Cilia and flagella are hair-like appendages that protrude from the surface of a variety of eukaryotic cells and deform in a wavelike fashion to transport fluids and propel cells. Motivated by the ubiquity of non-Newtonian fluids in biology, we address mathematically the role of shear-dependent viscosities on both the waving flagellar locomotion and ...
