The nut-and-bolt motion of a bacteriophage sliding along a bacterial flagellum: a complete hydrodynamics model

The ‘nut-and-bolt’ mechanism of a bacteriophage-bacteria flagellum translocation motion is modelled by numerically integrating the 3D Stokes equations using a Finite-Element Method (FEM). Following the works by Katsamba and Lauga (Phys Rev Fluids 4(1): 013101, 2019), two mechanical models of the fla...
