THE BEHAVIOR OF THE SCYPHOMEDUSAE CHRYSAORA QUINQUECIRRHA AND AURELIA AURITA AND ITS ECOLOGICAL IMPORTANCE
… organisms and tested on the swimming behavior of Aurelia aurita and the foraging behavior of Chrysaora quinquecirrha. An individual-based model of medusa swimming behavior was formulated as a correlated random walk of velocity vectors in three dimensions. Each A. aurita medusa exhibited a unique …

Jellyfish Inspired Underwater Systems and Technologies
… A robotic jellyfish, inspired by the species Aurelia aurita was developed and characterized. In addition to the body of the main robotic vehicle, supporting technologies were developed including polymeric artificial muscles, hydrogel-based artificial mesoglea, and an inclinometer inspired by …

Design and Development of a Bio-inspired Robotic Jellysh that Features Ionic Polymer Metal Composites Actuators
… mimicked the geometry and swimming style of the Aurelia aurita. By tailoring the applied voltage waveform and the flexibility of the bell, the robot swam at an average speed of 1.5 mm/s and consumed 3.5 W of power. The third and final generation mimicked the morphology, swimming behavior, and …

Design and Analysis of Biomimetic Medusa Robots
… the maximum deformation profile of the A. aurita. The optimized AA-BISMAC achieved a maximum curvature of 0.428 1/cm as compared to 0.438 1/cm for the A. aurita with an average squared root error of 0.043 (1/cm), 10.2% of maximum A. aurita curvature. BISMAC actuators are unidirectional …

Three-dimensional particle tracking velocimetry study of marine organism wake behavior
Three-dimensional particle tracking velocimetry (3D-PTV) is a flow measurement technique that tracks Lagrangian trajectories of passive tracer particles using stereoscopic imaging. The technique allows for detailed analysis of the velocities along particle trajectories in unsteady flows. The …
