Learning swimming escape patterns for larval fish under energy constraints
Ioannis Mandralis, Pascal Weber, Guido Novati +1
Swimming organisms can escape their predators by creating and harnessing unsteady flow fields through their body motions. Stochastic optimization and flow simulations have identifi…
Learning Efficient Navigation in Vortical Flow Fields
Peter Gunnarson, Ioannis Mandralis, Guido Novati +2
Efficient point-to-point navigation in the presence of a background flow field is important for robotic applications such as ocean surveying. In such applications, robots may only…
Optimal sensing for fish school identification
Pascal Weber, Georgios Arampatzis, Guido Novati +3
Fish schooling implies an awareness of the swimmers for their companions. In flow mediated environments, in addition to visual cues, pressure and shear sensors on the fish body are…
Efficient collective swimming by harnessing vortices through deep reinforcement learning
Siddhartha Verma, Guido Novati, Petros Koumoutsakos
Fish in schooling formations navigate complex flow-fields replete with mechanical energy in the vortex wakes of their companions. Their schooling behaviour has been associated with…
Computing the force distribution on the surface of complex, deforming geometries using vortex methods and Brinkman penalization
Siddhartha Verma, Gabriele Abbati, Guido Novati +1
The distribution of forces on the surface of complex, deforming geometries is an invaluable output of flow simulations. One particular example of such geometries involves self-prop…
Synchronised Swimming of Two Fish
Guido Novati, Siddhartha Verma, Dmitry Alexeev +3
We study the fluid dynamics of two fish-like bodies with synchronised swimming patterns. Our studies are based on two-dimensional simulations of viscous incompressible flows. We di…
