Hopscotching Jellyfish: combining different duty cycle kinematics can lead to enhanced swimming performance
Tierney Baldwin, Nicholas A. Battista
Jellyfish (Medusozoa) have been deemed the most energy-efficient animals in the world. Their bell morphology and relatively simple nervous systems make them attractive to robotocis…
Swimming through parameter subspaces of a simple anguilliform swimmer
Nicholas A. Battista
Computational scientists have investigated swimming performance across a multitude of different systems for decades. Most models depend on numerous model parameters and performance…
Diving into a simple anguilliform swimmer's sensitivity
Nicholas A. Battista
Computational models of aquatic locomotion range from individual modest simple swimmers in 2D to sophisticated 3D individual swimmers to complex multi-swimmer models that attempt t…
Naut your everyday jellyfish model: Exploring how tentacles and oral arms impact locomotion
Jason G. Miles, Nicholas A. Battista
Jellyfish - majestic, energy efficient, and one of the oldest species that inhabits the oceans. It is perhaps the second item, their efficiency, that has captivated scientists for…
Don't be jelly: Exploring effective jellyfish locomotion
Jason G. Miles, Nicholas A. Battista
Jellyfish have been called one of the most energy-efficient animals in the world due to the ease in which they move through their fluid environment, by product of their morphologic…
Three-dimensional low Reynolds number flows near biological filtering and protective layers
W. Christopher Strickland, Laura A. Miller, Arvind Santhanakrishnan +3
Mesoscale filtering and protective layers are replete throughout the natural world. Within the body, arrays of extracellular proteins, microvilli, and cilia can act as both protect…
IB2d Reloaded: a more powerful Python and MATLAB implementation of the immersed boundary method
Nicholas Battista, Christopher Strickland, Aaron Barrett +1
The immersed boundary method (IB) is an elegant way to fully couple the motion of a fluid and deformations of an immersed elastic structure. In that vein, the IB2d software allows…
IB2d: a Python and MATLAB implementation of the immersed boundary method
Nicholas A. Battista, W. Christopher Strickland, Laura A. Miller
The development of fluid-structure interaction (FSI) software involves trade-offs between ease of use, generality, performance, and cost. Typically there are large learning curves…
