How do we get information to design safe cars? By crashing a lot of cars! In a controlled, safe environment, that is, and one of those places is @uvacab where graduate students lead high-level biomechanics research. @UVAEngineers @MBPanzerLab #biomechanics

Mesmerizing bio-inspired robotics innovation! Way to go Alec @FsrgUva and Chengyu @VillanovaME! @UVAEngineers #fishsci #swimming #hydrodynamics #CFD
Alec Menzer@menzer_alec8 Nov 2023
At the ASME IMECE conference, I presented how olfactory chemoreception is a useful sensing modality for bio-robotic fish to sense surrounding flow conditions. This was a collaborative effort with Dr. Chengyu Li from Villanova . (Gif: blue is Q-criterion, orange is odor).
