SUMMARY:David W. MURPHY (University of South Florida\, Tampa\, USA): Flappi
 ng flight in air and water: Bio-inspiration from tiny insects and sea butt
 erflies
DESCRIPTION:David W. MURPHY: The flapping of wings is a common locomotion t
 echnique for tiny animals in both air and water. Insects flap their wings 
 to fly in air\, and zooplanktonic marine snails called sea butterflies fla
 p wing-like appendages (called parapodia) to “fly” in water. Despite t
 he thousand-fold difference in density between air and water\, the flight 
 systems of these very different animals show surprising similarities in ho
 w the wings move and in how they generate lift. These similarities point t
 owards the possibility of designing a bio-inspired micro-aerial vehicle ca
 pable of aerial and aquatic flapping flight\, but the fluid dynamics of su
 ch flight systems are not well understood. Here I describe our experimenta
 l efforts to understand these locomotion systems.\nIOSSB Seminar
