- Undulatory and oscillatory swimming (2019, background): “Alben et al. (2012) later studied (theoretically and experimentally) a freely swimming flexible foil in heave, and observed that the scaling of swimming speed with bending modulus and foil length was given as power laws at resonant peaks (separate power laws in terms of dimensional and…”

- On the rules for aquatic locomotion (2017, background): “A further question then is if indeed the animal cannot choose its St number and yet, its St number is observed to be tuned to the optimal range, how does this tuning take place, and what aspects of the design of the animal are most responsible for achieving this range of the Strouhal number?
