Jacob Peters and L. Mahadevan from Harvard University, with Orit Peleg from the University of Colorado sought to detail the precise changes that a swarm of honeybees makes as air temperatures rise and fall. It was known that, when unable to relocate to a place with a more habitable temperature, a […]
In a recent paper, researchers at the American Institute of Physics analyzed the swimming of zebrafish in a tank with particle image velocimetry and high-speed cameras. Their data showed that zebrafish are able to precisely control body fluctuations in order to generate “movable vortex pairs of high- and low-pressure regions” which […]
A team of researchers at MIT who were inspired by the underbelly of lobsters recently fabricated a new kind of hydrogel-based material that is strong, stretchy, and can withstand a remarkable amount of wear and tear. These researchers took inspiration from lobsters because of the impressive characteristics […]
