Abstract

This paper presents a vortex field analysis of a four-joint robotic fish using the Viscous Vortex Domain (VVD) method. Firstly, the structural composition of the robotic fish is briefly introduced. Secondly, by establishing discrete Lagrangian mesh points and analyzing the fish's oscillation posture based on discrete vortex field points, the swimming performance of the robotic fish in a flowing vortex field and its oscillation posture in a stationary vortex field are analyzed.
