Published in Physics of Fluids: Biomimetic Propulsion Study
Dr Lan, Dr Lai and their team published a study in Physics of Fluids showing that stingray-inspired asymmetric flapping can improve underwater propulsion efficiency. Using optimisation techniques and flow simulations, the research identified motion patterns that enhance vortex dynamics and support the design of biomimetic aquatic robots.
