Kinematic responses to rolling perturbations during swimming in the bluegill sunfish
Meeting Abstract 87-6 Monday, Jan. 6 11:15 – 11:30 Kinematic responses to rolling perturbations during swimming in the bluegill sunfish FATH, M*; NASIMI, F; TYTELL, E ; Tufts University michael.fath@tufts.edu Many fishes are unstable in roll. Staying upright thus requires constant coordinated input from multiple fins. To quantify how fish maintain roll stability, we developed a miniature […]
