Inspired by the sleek and efficient propulsion of squid, jellyfish and other cephalopods, a University of Colorado at Boulder researcher has designed a new generation of compact vortex generators that ...

Engineers have taught a simple submarine robot to take advantage of turbulent forces to propel itself through water. Small autonomous underwater vehicles, like the drones of the sea, could be very ...

Caltech engineers in John Dabiri’s lab have taught a simple submarine robot to take advantage of turbulent forces to propel itself through water. Dabiri and his former graduate student Peter Gunnarson ...

Inspired by the way squids and jelly fish use vortices to move around, researchers at the University of Colorado at Boulder (colorado.edu), designed an underwater vortex generator that could make it ...
