Research on the Rapid Closing Jet Mechanism of Pistol Shrimp’s Claws Based on Fluid Dynamic Grid

The predation behavior of the pistol shrimp is extremely special, and the predation process will produce a huge popping sound, which has caused extensive research by scholars from all over the world. This article carried out a study on the rapid closing jet mechanism of pistol shrimp’s claws. A theo...
