1 Fish Biorobotics Fishes as model systems for understanding aquatic propulsion 28,000 species of fishes Half of all vertebrates are fishes Fishes are 550 million years old Tremendous opportunity for selection to act on propulsive systems Multiple fluid control surfaces Propulsor flexibility Maneuverability Obvious source of inspiration for underwater robotics George V. Lauder Harvard University We are just at the beginning of understanding how fish move through water and generate propulsive forces Fish biorobotics 1) Key features of fish functional design 1) Key features of fish functional design Diversity; stability and buoyancy; fin design 2) Fish fin function Visualizing fin and fluid motion in vivo Fin fin interactions during locomotion 3) Fish robotic test platforms Robotic pectoral fins Robotic caudal fins Robotic ribbon fin Flexible foils as a simple robotic models of fish 4) What next? Studying locomotor control via perturbations Many key collaborators, especially James Tangorra Lab (Drexel Univ.), Erik Anderson (Grove City College), Rajat Mittal Lab (JHU), Malcolm MacIver Lab (Northwestern Univ.) Much variation in body form, fin position, fin shape -- study comparatively, but also using robotic models -- 1
2 Evolutionary patterns: pectoral fins pelvic fins dorsal fin(s) anal fin caudal fin Many unanswered questions: Effect of fin position? Effect of fin shape? Hydrodynamic and mechanical function? (spiny-finned fishes) (spiny-finned fishes) ( true bony fishes) ( true bony fishes) (ray-finned fishes 28,000 species) (ray-finned fishes 28,000 species) Key features of fish functional design median and paired fins Station holding and maneuvering using pectoral fins Dorsal fin Caudal fin Sunfish Perch Pectoral fins Pelvic fins Anal fin Fish are unstable: Need constant fin action to maintain posture Negatively buoyant; CB below CM Very effective at maneuvering and controlling position 2
3 fin ray segments Half ray fin ray Fin ray mechanics (sunfish pectoral fin) Half ray unsegmented basally Fin membrane 4 muscles control each fin ray (+3) 14 fin rays in the pectoral fin; 59 muscle bundles total per fin Simple ray models Pectoral fin rays bend into flow during maneuvering 2) Fish fin function How do pectoral fins generate locomotor forces? Flow Fin ray E ~ GPa Fin membrane E ~ 1 MPa Fin curved into flow Videos of pectoral fin movement: side and bottom views, 1024 x 1024, fps Digitize points per time step throughout the fin beat; reconstruct 3D fin positions Maneuvering as well as propulsion at several speeds 3

Studying locomotor control via perturbations Need to go beyond descriptive approaches to understand control. 45 Self Propelled Speed (cm/s) Heave only Heave and pitch Flexural stiffness -- EI (N*m 2 ) Each graph point is a different type of plastic Each plastic has the same area and shape +/- 3.0 cm heave; 0 or 20 pitch amplitude; 1 Hz Error bars contained within symbols Key collaborators: James Tangorra Lab, Drexel Univ. Mike Philen and colleagues, Virginia Tech. 13
14 Perturbing swimming fishes Particle image velocimetry of vortex ring hitting pectoral fin Movie: dye-filled vortex ring hitting swimming fish SYNTHESIS Fish fin motion is complex and surface conformation is under active control Robotic models of fish fins permit detailed investigation of motion and force production Studies of fish locomotor control from a biomechanical perspective are in their infancy; perturbation of swimming fishes is one useful future approach. 14
