Fish locomotion: recent advances and new directions.
Annual review of marine science
Sep 19, 2014
Research on fish locomotion has expanded greatly in recent years as new approaches have been brought to bear on a classical field of study. Detailed analyses of patterns of body and fin motion and the effects of these movements on water flow patterns...
From Behavior to Bio-Inspiration: Aerial Reorientation and Multi-Plane Stability in Kangaroo Rats, Computational Models, and Robots.
Integrative and comparative biology
Sep 27, 2024
Tails play essential roles in functions related to locomotor stability and maneuverability among terrestrial and arboreal animals. In kangaroo rats, bipedal hopping rodents, tails are used as effective inertial appendages for stability in hopping, bu...
Dynamic Modeling, Analysis, and Design Synthesis of a Reduced Complexity Quadruped with a Serpentine Robotic Tail.
Integrative and comparative biology
Sep 8, 2021
Serpentine tail structures are widely observed in the animal kingdom and are thought to help animals to handle various motion tasks. Developing serpentine robotic tails and using them on legged robots has been an attractive idea for robotics. This ar...
Inertial Tail Effects during Righting of Squirrels in Unexpected Falls: From Behavior to Robotics.
Integrative and comparative biology
Sep 8, 2021
Arboreal mammals navigate a highly three dimensional and discontinuous habitat. Among arboreal mammals, squirrels demonstrate impressive agility. In a recent "viral" YouTube video, unsuspecting squirrels were mechanically catapulted off of a track, i...
A tailless aerial robotic flapper reveals that flies use torque coupling in rapid banked turns.
Science (New York, N.Y.)
Sep 14, 2018
Insects are among the most agile natural flyers. Hypotheses on their flight control cannot always be validated by experiments with animals or tethered robots. To this end, we developed a programmable and agile autonomous free-flying robot controlled ...
Tail use improves performance on soft substrates in models of early vertebrate land locomotors.
Science (New York, N.Y.)
Jul 8, 2016
In the evolutionary transition from an aquatic to a terrestrial environment, early tetrapods faced the challenges of terrestrial locomotion on flowable substrates, such as sand and mud of variable stiffness and incline. The morphology and range of mo...
