Gegenüber den Säugetieren werden Fische häufig unterschätzt und als weniger komplexe Organismen abgetan. Um diesen voreiligen Schluss zu entkräften, präsentiert Ihnen Horst Bleckmann die hochentwickelten kognitiven Fähigkeiten der Fische.Wussten Sie z.B., dass Fische mit ca. 30.000 Arten die größte Gruppe aller Wirbeltiere stellen und alle aquatischen Lebensräume besiedeln? Für diese immense Leistung haben sie eine Vielzahl von hochspezialisie...

This book is the closing report of the national priority program Nature-Inspired Fluid Mechanics (Schwerpunktprogramm SPP 1207: Strömungsbeeinflussung in der Natur und Technik). Nature-inspired fluid mechanics is one subset of biomimetics, a discipline which has received increased attention over the last decade, with numerous faculties and degree courses devoted solely to exploring ‘nature as a model’ for engineering applications. To save loco...

In this book, leading scientists in the fields of sensory biology, neuroscience, physics and engineering explore the basic operational principles and behavioral uses of flow sensing in animals and how they might be applied to engineering applications such as autonomous control of underwater or aerial vehicles. Although humans possess no flow-sensing abilities, countless aquatic (e.g. fish, cephalopods and seals), terrestrial (e.g. crickets and...
