I am studying the swimming behavior of various forms of aquatic life in order to create a new robot based on the adroit swimming ability of living creatures. I am also studying blood flow in order to examine mechanical vulnerability to atherosclerotic plaque through model experiments using artificial diseased arteries and numerical computations.
