Currently there are many designs that are modeled after marine animals. For example, wind turbines are modeled after the fins of whales when they swim. Little is known about the jellyfish’s movement, however. This paper explores the science behind the swimming mechanism of a jellyfish. The researchers […]
When we think of robots, we immediately envision them being made out of hard and durable metal. However, soft materials within animals have inspired a new wave of “soft robots”. This paper discusses the recent development in “Soft Robotics” and explains the mechanisms […]
