 FINISHED 
The CFD-OctoProp project aims to investigate the fluid mechanics involved with the propulsion and locomotion systems of cephalopods by means of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) tools. The development of an accurate kinematic and fluid dynamics model of the propelling apparatus of these soft-bodied organisms is intended to aid in the design of an actuator which will eventually be implemented in a ...

Smart Catheterization (SCATh)

Start date: Feb 1, 2010, End date: Jan 31, 2013,

Modern medicine is irreversibly shifting towards less invasive surgical procedures. Conventional open surgery approaches are systematically being replaced by interventions that reduce access trauma and thereby minimise pain and hospitalisation periods for patients. The downside of this approach is that it is highly demanding for the interventionalist, entailing unacceptable risks for the patient. ...

The objective of the LAMPETRA proposal is developing lamprey/salamander bioinspired artefacts to perform neuroscientific studies related to goal-directed locomotion and to find new solutions for high-performance artificial locomotion, in terms of fast-response, adaptability, reliability, energy efficiency, and control. These issues will be pursued by implementing a bio-inspired artificial system ( ...
