In-phase and anti-phase flagellar synchronization by waveform compliance and basal coupling

We present a theory of flagellar synchronization in the green alga Chlamydomonas , using full treatment of flagellar hydrodynamics and measured beat patterns. We find that two recently proposed synchronization mechanisms, flagellar waveform compliance and basal coupling, stabilize anti-phase synchro...
