The role of hydrodynamics in collective motions of fish schools and bioinspired underwater robots

H Ko, G Lauder, R Nagpal - Journal of the Royal Society …, 2023 - royalsocietypublishing.org
Collective behaviour defines the lives of many animal species on the Earth. Underwater
swarms span several orders of magnitude in size, from coral larvae and krill to tunas and …

Collective response of fish to combined manipulations of illumination and flow

DAB Lombana, M Porfiri - Behavioural Processes, 2022 - Elsevier
Collective behavior is ubiquitous among fish, yet, its hows and whys are yet to be completely
elucidated. It is known that several environmental factors can dramatically influence …

Dipole-and vortex sheet-based models of fish swimming

P Zhang, SD Peterson, M Porfiri - Journal of Theoretical Biology, 2023 - Elsevier
Elucidating the hydrodynamics of fish swimming is critical to identifying the processes
underlying fish orientation and schooling. Due to their mathematical tractability, models …

Stability of schooling patterns of a fish pair swimming against a flow

R Das, SD Peterson, M Porfiri - Flow, 2023 - cambridge.org
Fish often swim in crystallized group formations (schooling) and orient themselves against
the incoming flow (rheotaxis). At the intersection of these two phenomena, we investigate the …

Multifractal fluctuations in zebrafish (Danio rerio) polarization time series

ARC Romaguera, JVA Vasconcelos… - The European Physical …, 2024 - Springer
In this work, we study the polarization time series obtained from experimental observation of
a group of zebrafish (Danio rerio) confined in a circular tank. The complex dynamics of the …

Group cohesion and passive dynamics of a pair of inertial swimmers with three-dimensional hydrodynamic interactions

MN Mabrouk, D Floryan - arXiv preprint arXiv:2404.13152, 2024 - arxiv.org
When swimming animals form cohesive groups, they can reap several benefits. Our
understanding of collective animal motion has traditionally been driven by models based on …

Wall effect on the start maneuver of a jet swimmer

Q Zhu - Bioinspiration & Biomimetics, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
Inspired by aquatic creatures such as squid, the novel propulsion method based on pulsed
jetting is a promising way to achieve high speed and high maneuverability. To study the …
