A Numerical Investigation of Controllably Flexible Hydrofoil in Laminar Flows [PDF]
, 2007 Aquatic animals, such as fishes, whales, seals and penguins, are naturally born to be flexible and deformable, which promise their effective locomotion through water. They are able to produce hydrodynamic thrust by active control of their body configurations.

Simultaneous PIV and DIC Measurements in a Towing Tank Environment with a Flexible Hydrofoil
14th International Symposium on Particle Image Velocimetry, 2021 Due to their good mechanical properties composite materials are increasingly applied for the construction of lifting surfaces in the maritime industry. However, besides improving the strength to weight ratio of a structure, the anisotropic material properties can also exhibit bend-twist coupling, when exposed to higher loads. In order to experimentally

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.We introduce ENHYDROSS, a new mechanistic model that uses optimal swimming speed and minimum cost of transport to estimate maximum dispersal distances and durations for vertebrates, enabling assessment of long‐distance oceanic dispersal potential. Applied to a range of extant and extinct animals, the model's estimates generally align with observed data;

Chemical Mechanical Polishing of Plasma‐Modified Cu/Polymer Interfaces for Advanced Hybrid Bonding
Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 3, 14 January 2026.Hybrid bonding demands planarization of Cu/polymer interfaces, but soft polymers like benzocyclobutene (BCB) are difficult to polish by conventional chemical mechanical polishing (CMP). It is demonstrated that Ar plasma modification transforms BCB into a CMP‐compatible surface, enabling effective planarization and void‐free bonding.
