This project explores the mechanics of bacterial swimming, particularly focusing on the role of multiple flagella. It aims to develop theoretical models to understand how these structures enhance bacterial movement in various environments.
Bacteria play a critical role in the life of higher organisms.
Their behavior is constrained by the physical properties of their habitat: first and foremost, the presence of a surrounding fluid.
Most bacteria are motile, and most motile bacteria swim in fluids using slender helical appendages called flagella rotated by specialized motors.
While many bacteria have only one flagellum, most well-studied pathogenic bacteria possess multiple flagella.
Why have some bacteria evolved to use many flagel…
