3D simulations of self-propelled, reconstructed jellyfish using vortex methods

open access: yes, 2009
We present simulations of the vortex dynamics associated with the self-propelled motion of jellyfish. The geometry is obtained from image segmentation of video recordings from live jellyfish.

Trends in marine species distribution models: a review of methodological advances and future challenges

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Correlative species distribution models (SDMs) are quantitative tools in biogeography and macroecology. Building upon the ecological niche concept, they correlate environmental covariates to species presence to model habitat suitability and predict species distributions.

Rowing jellyfish contract to maintain neutral buoyancy

open access: yesTheoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters, 2018
: Jellyfish are easily carried by ocean currents, yet most studies on jellyfish focus on the kinematics in a quiescent fluid. In this experimental and theoretical study, we film six species of rowing jellyfish in a range of background flow speeds at the ...

Low-power microelectronics embedded in live jellyfish enhance propulsion

open access: yesScience Advances, 2020
A biohybrid robotic jellyfish uses less power than other types of aquatic robots and swims efficiently at enhanced speeds. Artificial control of animal locomotion has the potential to simultaneously address longstanding challenges to actuation, control ...

Design and Optimization of a Robust Wide‐Area Damping Controller for Mitigating Inter‐Area Oscillations in Wind‐Integrated Power Systems

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In power networks, low‐frequency oscillations—particularly inter‐area oscillations—pose a serious threat to system stability because of disruptions like short‐circuit faults and the increasing use of renewable energy sources like wind farms. To lessen the negative impacts of time delays when sending distant signals, this study presents a novel

Pelagic population dynamics of Aurelia sp in French Mediterranean lagoons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The pelagic dynamics of the cosmopolitan scyphozoan Aurelia sp. was investigated in three French Mediterranean lagoons, Thau, Berre and Bages-Sigean, which harbour resident populations.

In Vivo Analysis of the Biocompatibility and Immune Response of Jellyfish Collagen Scaffolds and its Suitability for Bone Regeneration

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020
Jellyfish collagen, which can be defined as “collagen type 0” due to its homogeneity to the mammalian types I, II, III, V, and IX and its batch-to-batch consistent producibility, is of special interest for different medical applications related to (bone)

Jellyfish collagen stimulates maturation of mouse bone marrow-derived dendritic cells

open access: yesJournal of Functional Foods, 2015
Jellyfish has recently attracted much attention for various applications, including functional foods due to its abundance of collagen. Jellyfish collagen, extracted from Nemopilema nomurai, was found to stimulate murine macrophage-like J774.1 cells ...
