🧊 3D Swimming at Low Reynolds Number: Sperm-like Flagellar Swimmer, Helical Beat and Scallop Theorem Lab

A Blender-built 3D microfluidic chamber where a sperm-like cell swims with a traveling or helical flagellar wave solved by resistive force theory (full 6x6 force and torque balance) next to a reciprocal twin that obeys the scallop theorem, with a guided tour and in-page numerical checks.
