Design of a Propulsion System for Swimming Under Low Reynolds Flow Conditions

This work focuses on the propulsion of swimming micro-robots through accessible, quasi-static, fluid-filled, environments of the human body. The operating environment dictates that the system must function under low Reynolds number flow conditions. In this fluidic regime, viscous forces dominate. I...
