About
Junshi Wang is a researcher in bio-inspired robotics and fluid dynamics, with a focus on understanding and replicating the swimming mechanics of fish. Their work centers on the interplay between flexible body kinematics, vortex dynamics, and propulsive performance, particularly in thunniform and carangiform swimmers. Wang’s major contributions include elucidating the role of the caudal peduncle in fish-inspired robotic models, demonstrating how changes in stiffness and angle of attack directly affect swimming performance—a study that has garnered 26 citations. They have also advanced the field by applying modal decomposition techniques, such as proper orthogonal decomposition, to analyze the complex fluid–caudal fin interactions of Crevalle jack, providing deeper insights into bio-inspired propulsion. More recently, Wang has explored vortex dynamics in wake–body and wake-fin interactions during staggered schooling, revealing hydrodynamic advantages in collective swimming. Their work bridges experimental robotics and computational fluid dynamics, offering practical design principles for autonomous underwater vehicles. With a growing citation record and innovative use of modal analysis, Wang is shaping the future of bio-inspired engineering and aquatic locomotion research.
