Hydrodynamics of Vortex Generation during Bell Contraction by the Hydromedusa <i>Eutonina indicans</i> (Romanes, 1876)
Swimming bell kinematics and hydrodynamic wake structures were documented during multiple pulsation cycles of a <i>Eutonina indicans</i> (Romanes, 1876) medusa swimming in a predominantly linear path. Bell contractions produced pairs of vortex rings with opposite rotational sense. Analys...
