Multi-ciliated microswimmers–metachronal coordination and helical swimming
ABSTRACT: The dynamics and motion of multi-ciliated microswimmers with a spherical body and a small number N (with [Formula: see text] ) of cilia with length comparable to the body radius, is investigated by mesoscale hydrodynamics simulations. A metachronal wave is imposed for the cilia beat, for w...
