The N-link model for slender rods in a viscous fluid: well-posedness and convergence to classical elastohydrodynamics equations
Clément Moreau, François Alouges, Aline Lefebvre-Lepot +1
Flexible fibers at the microscopic scale, such as flagella and cilia, play essential roles in biological and synthetic systems. The dynamics of these slender filaments in viscous f…

Some mathematical models for flagellar activation mechanisms
François Alouges, Irene Anello, Antonio DeSimone +2
This paper focuses on studying a model for molecular motors responsible for the bending of the axoneme in the flagella of microorganisms. The model is a coupled system of partial d…
