Maneuvering of an underwater vehicle using bio-inspired pectoral fins
Bio-inspired pectoral fins on an underwater vehicle produce controllable forces for lateral maneuvering, with streamwise forces depending mainly on projected frontal area and lateral forces on Strouhal number, and fin synchronization used to suppress unwanted force peaks.
