Identification of Lagrangian coherent structures around swimming jellyfish from experimental time-series data
The unique body kinematics of jellyfish embodies the most intriguing form of biological propulsion, which makes jellyfish a promising resource for developing new locomotion systems. Instead of the conventional Eulerian method, we take an unprecedented Lagrangian approach by tracking individual fluid...
