Dynamics and hydrodynamic efficiency of diving beetle while swimming

Dynamics and hydrodynamic efficiency of diving beetle while swimming

Diving beetle, an excellent biological prototype for bionic underwater vehicles, can achieve forward swimming, backward swimming, and flexible cornering by swinging its two powerful hind legs. An in-depth study of the propulsion performance of them will contribute to the micro underwater vehicles. I...
