Multi-flagellated bacteria utilize the hydrodynamic interaction between their filamentary tails, known as flagella, to swim and change their swimming direction in low Reynolds number flow. Simplified hydrodynamics model, like Resistive Force Theories (RFT), lacks the capability to capture the dynamics of certain interactions known as bundling and tumbling. However, for the development of efficient...
