Squids and other cephalopods use a form of jet propulsion that is not well understood, especially when it comes to their hydrodynamics under turbulent flow conditions. Discovering their secrets can help create new designs for bioinspired underwater robots and vehicles that need to operate within this environment.Researchers in Scotland, the U.S., and China are exploring the fundamental mechanism behind squids’ pulsed-jet propulsion. In Physics of Fluids, from AIP Publishing, the group describes…
