The manta ray, exemplifying an agile swimming mode identified as the median and paired fin (MPF) mode, inspired the development of underwater robots. Robotic manta typically comprises a central rigid body and flexible pectoral fins. Flexible fins provide...

Evidence on the role of propulsion compared to drag in swimming, based on experimental settings, is still lacking. However, higher levels of propulsion seem to lead to faster swimming velocities. The aim of this study was to understand the variation in a...

Fish propelled by body and/or caudal fin (BCF) locomotion can achieve high-efficiency and high-speed swimming performance, by changing their body motion to interact with external fluids. This flexural body motion can be prescribed through its curvature p...
