Two-link swimming using buoyant orientation
The scallop theorem posits that a two-link system immersed in a fluid at low Reynolds number cannot achieve any net translation via cyclic changes in its hinge angle. Here, we propose an approach to "breaking" this theorem, based on a static separation between the centers of mass and buoya...
