Tricks and tips for faster small-scale swimming: Complex fluids and elasticity
Many cells exploit the bending or rotation of flagellar filaments in order to self-propel in viscous fluids. Often swimming occurs in complex, nonlinear fluids, e.g. mucus. Futhermore even in simple Newtonian fluids, if swimming appendages are deformable then locomotion is subject to …
