Animal Locomotion
Recent experimental and computational studies of swimming hydrodynamics have contributed significantly to our understanding of how animals swim, but much remains to be done. Ten questions are presented here as an avenue to discuss some of the arenas in which progress still is needed and as a means of considering the technical approaches to address these questions. 1. What is the threedimensiona...
متن کاملStudies in Animal Locomotion Viii. the Kinetics of Locomotion of Nereis Diversicolor
(With One Plate and Eight Text-figures) THE locomotory movements of a typical polychaete worm, such as Nereis diversicolor, are of interest in that they are effected by two distinct mechanisms, (i) a series of parapodia which act as levers comparable to the appendages of terrestrial animals, (ii) the longitudinal muscles of the body. When Nereis is moving slowly over a solid surface, only the p...
متن کاملMarkerless 3D motion capture for animal locomotion studies
Obtaining quantitative data describing the movements of animals is an essential step in understanding their locomotor biology. Outside the laboratory, measuring animal locomotion often relies on video-based approaches and analysis is hampered because of difficulties in calibration and often the limited availability of possible camera positions. It is also usually restricted to two dimensions, w...
متن کاملAnimal Locomotion Controllers From Scratch
There exists a large body of research devoted to creating real time interactive locomotion controllers which are targeted at some specific class of character, most often humanoid bipeds. Relatively little work, however, has been done on approaches which are applicable to creatures with a wide range of different forms – partially due to the lack of easily obtainable motion-capture data for anima...
متن کاملStudies in Animal Locomotion Iii. the Propulsive Mechanism of the Whiting (gadus Merlangus)
THE two previous papers in this series have dealt almost exclusively with the movements of fish, such as the eel or the butterfish {Centronotus gunnellus) whose bodies are long and flexible and which exhibit very well-defined waves of muscular contraction when the fish are travelling through the water. The present paper deals primarily with pelagic fish which differ from the eel in two importan...
