Study on the Effect of Flexible Passive Deformation of Tuna Caudal Fin on Swimming Performance

Study on the Effect of Flexible Passive Deformation of Tuna Caudal Fin on Swimming Performance

The high-speed and efficient swimming characteristics of tuna are valuable for designing bio-inspired underwater vehicles. Tuna use their highly deformable caudal fins as propulsors during swimming. Caudal fin deformation is categorized into skeletal-controlled active deformation and fluid-induced f...
