A potential benefit of swimming together in coordinated schools is to allow fish to extract
energy from vortices shed by their neighbours, thus reducing the costs of locomotion. This …

The investigation of fish swimming is prevalent in the fields of biomimetic hydrodynamics
and is important for research on the temporal–spatial evolvement of vortex structures around …

Recently, there has been considerable interest in developing novel energy-saving vehicles
that use flapping foils propulsion systems inspired by biology. Facing increasingly complex …

The aquatic-aerial robot with the free interface crossing can enhance adaptability in complex
aquatic environments. However, its design is extremely challenging for the striking …

Investigating the interaction between fins can guide the design and enhance the
performance of robotic fish. In this paper, we take boxfish as the bionic object and discuss …

Fish-like robot is a special autonomous underwater vehicle with broad application
prospects. Some previous studies concentrated on the hydrodynamics of free-swimming fish …

In the last few years, there have been many new developments and significant
accomplishments in the research of bionic robot fishes. However, in terms of swimming …

The underwater robots are becoming a new direction of robotics in the future because of the
increasingly demand on exploring the ocean. Due to thousands of years of evolution, marine …
