Autonomous synchronization between two cilia starting at opposite phases (the left cilium starts at the recovery stroke and the right cilium starts at the effective stroke). Synchronization is achieved after two cycles. Cilia spacing is 1. The snapshots, labeled successively from a to h, are separated in time by 9 ms. The resulting beat frequency is ≈31 Hz. The units of the axes are nondimensional length.
