Hydrodynamic interactions between nearby slender filaments
(IOP PublishingEPL (Europhysics Letters), 2016-11-28)
Cellular biology abound with filaments interacting through fluids, from intracellular microtubules, to rotating flagella and beating cilia. While previous work has demonstrated the complexity of capturing nonlocal hydrodynamic ...
Bundling of elastic filaments induced by hydrodynamic interactions
(Physical Review Fluids, 2017-12-01)
Peritrichous bacteria swim in viscous fluids by rotating multiple helical flagellar filaments. As the bacterium swims forward, all its flagella rotate in synchrony behind the cell in a tight helical bundle. When the bacterium ...
