Bundling of elastic filaments induced by hydrodynamic interactions
Man, Yi; Page, W; Poole, RJ; Lauga, Eric Jean-Marie (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 ...

Hydrodynamic interactions between nearby slender filaments
Man, Yi; Koens, Lyndon Mathijs; Lauga, Eric Jean-Marie (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 ...
