Animal locomotion: flying and swimming
Animal locomotion: flying and swimming
Eddies created in butterfly's flight, Phys. Fluids 25, 021902
In animal locomotion such as flying and swimming, the motion of the animal creates a flow as a surrounding environment, the flow changes the motion of the animal, and the motion again changes the flow. We are trying to figure out the control mechanism in flying and swimming maintained by such dynamic and bidirectional interactions.

Life is maintained by the transport of heat and substances by various flows in the living organism. We provide medical support by using numerical simulation of flow in the living organisms.
