Sea turtles gracefully navigate their marine environments by flapping their pectoral flippers in an elegant routine to produce the required hydrodynamic forces required for locomotion. The propulsion of sea turtles has been shown to occur for approximate...

Animals have evolved to adapt to complex and uncertain environments, acquiring locomotion skills for diverse surroundings. To endow a robot?s animal-like locomotion ability, in this paper, we propose a learning algorithm for quadruped robots based on dee...

Sea turtles are recognised as one of the ocean?s most remarkable migratory species, accomplishing journeys that cover thousands of kilometres. This fact is even more extraordinary when considering sea turtles consume mostly low-energy foods. The biology ...

Biomimetic aquatic robots are a promising solution for marine applications such as internal pipe inspection, beach safety, and animal observation because of their strong manoeuvrability and low environmental damage. As the application field of robots has...
