Towards amphibious robots: Asymmetric flapping foil motion underwater produces large thrust efficiently
The development of amphibious robots requires actuation that enables them to crawl as well as swim; sea turtles are excellent examples of amphibious functionality, that can serve as the biomimetic model for the development of amphibious robots. In this paper we have implemented the observed swimmin...
