Nectophore coordination and kinematics by physonect siphonophores

S. Strock, J. H. Costello, J. Daniels, K. Katija, S. Colin

This study examines the kinematics and coordination of nectophores in physonect siphonophores, finding metachronal coordination on the same side of the nectosomal axis and similar pulsing frequencies on opposite sides.

Cooperative hydrodynamics accompany multicellular-like colonial organization in the unicellular ciliate Stentor

S. Shekhar, H. Guo, S. P. Colin, W. F. Marshall, E. A. Kanso, J. H. Costello

This study shows that hydrodynamic coupling in Stentor colonies enhances feeding efficiency, with asymmetric benefits depending on individual solitary feeding rates.

Swimming kinematics and performance of spinal transected lampreys with different levels of axon regeneration

J. Fies, B. J. Gemmell, S. M. Fogerson, J. H. Costello, J. R. Morgan, E. D. Tytell, S. P. Colin

This study examines how axon regeneration in spinal transected lampreys relates to swimming performance, finding no direct link between axon regeneration and speed but strong correlations with wave frequency and efficiency.

The most efficient metazoan swimmer creates a 'virtual wall' to enhance performance

B. J. Gemmell, K. T. Du Clos, S. P. Colin, K. R. Sutherland, J. H. Costello

This study shows jellyfish create a virtual wall via vortex interactions to enhance swimming performance in open water.

Primitive and modern swimmers solve the challenges of turning similarly to achieve high maneuverability

J. O. Dabiri, S. Colin, B. Gemmell, K. Lucas, M. Leftwich, J. H. Costello

This study shows jellyfish and fish use similar turning strategies by first maximizing torque and then minimizing resistance, suggesting evolutionary convergence in maneuverability.

Propulsive design principles in a multi-jet siphonophore

K. R. Sutherland, S. P. Colin, J. H. Costello, B. J. Gemmell

This study examines the propulsion mechanics of siphonophores, finding that thrust is generated during both jetting and refill phases, enhancing swimming performance by 17%.

Widespread utilization of passive energy recapture in swimming medusae

B. J. Gemmell, S. P. Colin, J. H. Costello

This study examines the prevalence of passive energy recapture in medusae, finding it varies in contribution to swimming efficiency and is controlled by kinematics rather than morphology or performance.
