A Mathematical Model for Electrolocation in Weakly Electric Fishes

Weakly electric fishes usually live in the rivers of Africa and South America. They are able to orient themselves thanks to an electric sense, called electrolocation, that consist of emitting an electric field and sensing it at the surface of their skin. Whenever an object is nearby the fish, it dis...
