Flying and swimming in nature present sophisticated and exciting ventures in biomimetics,
which seeks sustainable solutions and solves practical problems by emulating nature's time …

To understand the mechanics of fish swimming, we need to know the forces exerted by the
fluid and how these forces affect the motion of the fish. To this end, we developed a 3-D …

Pufferfish swim and maneuver with a multi-fin system including dorsal, anal, caudal, and
pectoral fins, which presents sophisticated ventures in biomimetic designs of underwater …

Fish larvae may intercept their own wake during sharp turns, which might affect their escape
performance. We analysed C-starts of larval zebrafish (Danio rerio, Hamilton, 1822) using a …

This chapter overviews some advances in unsteady biofluid dynamics in terms of leading-
edge vortices, passive mechanisms in flexible wings and hinges and flapping flight in …

The use of zebrafish larvae has aroused wide-interest in the medical field for its potential
role in the development of new therapies. Compared to other species, the zebrafish larvae …
