Mudskippers use tail thrusting to help crutching to move on mud of various wetness
Divya Ramesh, Gargi Sadalgekar, Jiangqi Tan +1
At the water-land interface, amphibious fishes encounter wet flowable substrates made of granular solid-water mixtures, which can stay solid or flow like a fluid. As these substrat…

Importance and methods to control, vary, and characterize mud strength for studying locomotion
Divya Ramesh, Gargi Sadalgekar, Qiyuan Fu +3
Animals and robots encounter mud at the water-land interface. Like sand, mud can stay solid or flow like a fluid. Unlike sand, the yield strength of mud at which solid-fluid transi…

A resistive force model of legged locomotion on granular media
Chen Li, Tingnan Zhang, Daniel I. Goldman
Compared to agile legged animals, wheeled and tracked vehicles often suffer large performance loss on granular surfaces like sand and gravel. Understanding the mechanics of legged…
