Multisynchrony in active microfilaments
Yi Man, Eva Kanso
Biological microfilaments exhibit a variety of synchronization modes. Recent experiments observed that a pair of isolated eukaryotic flagella, coupled solely via the fluid medium,…

Intracellular coupling modulates biflagellar synchrony
Hanliang Guo, Yi Man, Kirsty Y. Wan +1
Beating flagella exhibit a variety of synchronization modes. This synchrony has long been attributed to hydrodynamic coupling between the flagella. However, recent work with flagel…

Bundling of elastic filaments induced by hydrodynamic interactions
Yi Man, William Page, Robert J. Poole +1
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…
