Synchronization and metachronal waves of elastic cilia caused by unsteady viscous flow
Hydrodynamic coordination of cilia is ubiquitous in biology. It is commonly modeled using the steady Stokes equations. The flow around ciliated cells, however, exhibits finite-time vorticity diffusion, requiring a dynamical description. We present a model of elastic cilia coupled by unsteady viscous...
