Journal ArticleDOI

Hydrodynamic flow patterns and synchronization of beating cilia.

TL;DR: The hydrodynamic flow field generated far from a cilium which is attached to a surface and beats periodically is calculated and a state diagram where synchronized states occur as a function of the distance of cilia and the relative orientation of their beat is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Self-Organized Beating and Swimming of Internally Driven Filaments

TL;DR: In this article, a simple two-dimensional model for motion of an elastic filament subject to internally generated stresses was proposed and it was shown that the resulting patterns of motion do not depend on the microscopic mechanism of the instability but only of the filament rigidity and hydrodynamic friction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Actively contracting bundles of polar filaments.

TL;DR: A phenomenological model is introduced to study the properties of bundles of polar filaments which interact via active elements and finds that the interaction of parallel filaments can induce unstable behavior and is responsible for active contraction and tension in the bundle.
Journal ArticleDOI

Active torque generation by the actomyosin cell cortex drives left–right symmetry breaking

TL;DR: This study combines thin-film active chiral fluid theory with experimental analysis of the C. elegans embryo to show that the actomyosin cortex generates activeChiral torques to facilitate chiral symmetry breaking.
