Fig. 5. Thrust made by flagellar shaft and flagellar hairs of the transverse flagellum in an hTF cell during a cycle of the transverse flagellum. Thick gray lines indicate the trajectory of a segment on the flagellum and the small arrows on the line indicate the direction and strength of the thrust. The change of force vectors are drawn at intervals of 1.4 ms. (A) hTF cell and flagellar trajectory's plane. Coordinate system ${xi}$ , ${psi}$ and ${zeta}$ are set as ${xi}$ =x, and as the trajectory of the segment is included in ${psi}$ - ${zeta}$ plane. (B) Flagellar movement and the generated force vectors in ${xi}$ - ${psi}$ plane. (C) Flagellar movement and the generated force vectors in ${xi}$ - ${zeta}$ plane.
