چکیده
Bionic underwater robots are the intersection of biology and robotics; they have advantages propulsion efficiency maneuverability. A novel vehicle that combines a gliding flapping inspired by manta ray is presented in this article. The outstanding character robot its integrated maneuverable relies on two bionic flexible pectoral fins long-range efficient propulsion, which based buoyancy-adjustment system mass-adjustment system. We designed biomimetic analyzed principle paper. capability performance verified through swimming experiments. In conclusion, provides platform with practical application capabilities marine environment detection, concealed reconnaissance, aquaculture.

Flapping propulsion using a fin ray
We calculate optimal driving motions for a fin ray in a two-dimensional inviscid fluid, which is a model for caudal fin locomotion. The driving is sinusoidal in time, and consists of heaving, pitching and a less-studied motion called ‘shifting’. The optimal phases of shifting relative to heaving and pitching for maximum thrust power and efficiency are calculated. The optimal phases undergo jump...
متن کاملBiomimetic propulsion for a swimming surgical micro-robot
A surgical micro-robot that swims inside the human ureter is proposed to provide a novel and minimally invasive method of kidney stone destruction. Inspired by the swimming mechanisms of bacteria such as E. coli, the robot utilizes biomimetic synthetic flagella composed of multiwalled carbon nanotubes that are driven into a rotating helical shape by a micro motor. Design aspects are discussed w...
متن کاملTowards a Self-Deploying and Gliding Robot
Strategies for hybrid locomotion such as jumping and gliding are used in nature by many different animals for traveling over rough terrain. This combination of locomotion modes also allows small robots to overcome relatively large obstacles at a minimal energetic cost compared to wheeled or flying robots. In this chapter we describe the development of a novel palm sized robot of 10 g that is ab...
متن کاملCharacteristics of a manta ray Manta alfredi population off Maui, Hawaii, and implications for management
Late maturity, few offspring and a residential nature are typical characteristics of Manta alfredi that make this species vulnerable to localized anthropogenic threats. Improving its life history information is crucial for successful management. A total of 229 surveys was conducted from 2005 to 2009 at a manta ray aggregation site off Maui, Hawaii, to qualitatively and quantitatively describe t...
