Stroke kinematics: relationship between the local actuation and shape changes. Reference conformation of the pellicle for each euglenid (top), exhibiting very small reduced volumes. Map of the pellicle shear recovered from the observations as a function of time and body coordinate γ(λ,t) (center), shown for two full synthetic strokes. The pellicle shear distributions acting on the reference configurations produce the shapes and pellicle conformations shown below.
