...Applying this approach to a sine wave with wavelength λ, Gray and Hancock found [31, 32] ξ|| = 2πη ln(2λ/a) − 12 , (32) ξ⊥ = 2ξ||....

...The idea, termed slender-body theory and pioneered by Hancock [30], is to take advantage of the slenderness of the filaments and replace the solution for the dynamics of the three-dimensional of the filament surface by that of its centerline using an appropriate...

...We then discuss the classic contributions of Taylor [30], Hancock [31] and Gray [32], who all but started the field more than 50 years ago (section 5); we also outline many of the subsequent works that followed....

...istive force theory, when the friction anisotropy is chosen appropriately. This yields the friction anisotropy ?= k= 1:81 0:07. The swimming of sperm has also been analyzed by slender-body theory (Hancock, 1953; Johnson and Brokaw, 1979; Lighthill, 1976) (taking into account the hydrodynamic interactions of dierent parts of the deformed agellum as in Sec.III.A for slender rods) by Higdon (1979). Results ag...
