New research shows sperm generate corkscrew-like fluid vortices that spin in sync with their tails, providing an unexpected ...

Monash researchers have discovered that swimming sperm create swirling fluid vortices—shaped like rolling corkscrews—giving ...

Athletes use their arm motion to pull themselves through the water, while the kicking tempo provides additional propulsion. Breathing patterns vary depending on the distance of an event and an athlete ...

“Penguins’ superior swimming ability to start/brake ... can guide the design of aquatic vehicles by quickly estimating propulsion performance without high experimental or computational ...

This position helps you learn balance and buoyancy. Strong, efficient kicks are vital for propulsion in swimming. Hold onto the pool edge or a kickboard, extend your body, and perform rapid up-and ...

Monash researchers have discovered that swimming sperm create swirling fluid vortices – shaped like rolling corkscrews – giving them an extra boost in ...

Aerial drone footage shows the humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae) missing its iconic lobed fluke, which is responsible for propulsion while swimming. Taken by Eric Guth under NMFS permit # 24359 ...
