Abstract

The shape and swimming method of fish vary in accordance with their environment and fish have high maneuverability in water. It is believed that studies on how fish swim can suggest a new effective propulsion method for underwater vehicles and robots, and that various types of fish type robots using new propulsion methods may contribute to ocean observations, developments and environmental protection. A great deal of research on hydrodynamic performance of fish swimming in a steady state that includes turning and positioning by fins has been carried out (Kumph, 1998; Anderson, 1998), but examination of transient motions such as accelerated motion, stopping motion and unsteady circling movement remains insufficient.
