    • Fish biorobotics: kinematics and hydrodynamics of self-propulsion 

      Lauder, George V.; Anderson, E. J.; Tangorra, J.; Madden, P. G. A. (The Company of Biologists, 2007)
      As a result of years of research on the comparative biomechanics and physiology of moving through water, biologists and engineers have made considerable progress in understanding how animals moving underwater use their ...

    • Locomotor function of the dorsal fin in rainbow trout: kinematic patterns and hydrodynamic forces 

      Drucker, E. G.; Lauder, George V. (The Company of Biologists, 2005)
      In this study, we examine the kinematics and hydrodynamics of the soft dorsal fin in a representative basal teleost, the rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss), during steady rectilinear locomotion at 0.5–2.0 body lengths ...

    • Novel Methods to Create Multielectron Bubbles in Superfluid Helium 

      Fang, Jieping; Dementyev, Anatoly E.; Tempere, Jacques; Silvera, Isaac F. (American Institute of Physics, 2011)
      An equilibrium multielectron bubble (MEB) in liquid helium is a fascinating object with a spherical two-dimensional electron gas on its surface. We discuss two ways in which they have been created. For MEBs that have been ...
