Antiphase Synchronization in a Flagellar-Dominance Mutant of Chlamydomonas [PDF]
Groups of beating flagella or cilia often synchronize so that neighboring filaments have identical frequencies and phases. A prime example is provided by the unicellular biflagellate Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, which typically displays synchronous in ...

A Multidisciplinary Comparison of Different Techniques Among Skilled Water Treaders
In an immersion incident, a person may be required to tread water for extended periods of time in order to survive. Treading water, or maintaining a stable head position above the water surface, can be achieved in several different ways.

Soft Robotic Engines with Non‐Reciprocal Motion by Physical Intelligence
Movement is vital, and it requires breaking symmetry. This study introduces a hydrogel engine that achieves non‐reciprocal motion through kinetic asymmetry in repeated actuation cycles. This approach for breaststroke‐swimming‐like motion is embedded inside the material and establishes a new paradigm of physical intelligence for soft robotics.

The Water Polo Intermittent Shuttle Test in Women's Water Polo Players
ABSTRACT This study aimed to (a) establish the test‐retest reliability of the water polo intermittent shuttle test (WIST) in elite female water polo players, (b) investigate the validity of the WIST to determine positional differences in WIST scores within this population and (c) distinguish between competitive female playing standards.
