Hydrodynamic Study of Pisciform Locomotion with a Towed Biolocomotion Emulator
… robotic designers to understand the physics of pisciform (fish-like) locomotion and learn how to effectively implement the propulsive mechanisms into their designs to create the next generation of aquatic robots. Aiming to assist this process, this thesis presents an experimental apparatus …

Unsteady Aerodynamic/Hydrodynamic Analysis of Bio-inspired Flapping Elements at Low Reynolds Number
… and structural adaptations presented by bio-locomotion continue to inspire some of the advancements in today's small-scaled flying and swimming vehicles. These vehicles operate in a low Reynolds number flow regime where viscous effects dominate flow interactions, which makes it challenging to …
