How fishes save energy : exploring biomechanical and physiological performance of locomotion
Swimming ability has contributed to the evolutionary success of fishes, and its mechanics have been studied extensively across groups. Fishes exhibit an astounding diversity of locomotor behaviors, from classic swimming with their body and fins to jumping, flying, walking, and collective behaviors such as schooling. During my talk, I will discuss how fish can increase locomotor efficiency during solitary and collective swimming across a range of speeds.
The audience is composed of people with rather heterogeneous backgrounds including specialists in solids, fluids, granular flows, statistical physics... so the idea is to keep your talk understandable by people not necessarily working in your field... The seminar time slot runs from 11am to noon so the best is to make the talk last around 45 minutes to leave some time for discussion.
