A biorobotic model of the suction feeding system in largemouth bass: the roles of motor program speed and hyoid kinematics
... The vast majority of ray-finned fishes capture prey through suction feeding. The basis of this behavior is the generation of subambient pressure through rapid expansion of a highly kinetic skull. Over the last four ...
