Figure 2.
Body angle, moment of inertia and power for episode in figure 1. (a) Instantaneous body angle αbody (black; blue and red ‘+’ signs: minima and maxima) and head angle αhead (green); (b) body angular velocity ωbody; (c) body angular acceleration (black: by differentiation of ωbody; red: according to electronic supplementary material, equation (S3.18)); (d) moment of inertia about the CoM Jbody; dashed blue line shows
(i.e. Jbody for the straight fish), (e) rate of change of the moment of inertia
; (f) total specific body power
based on the rate of change of kinetic energy.
