Abstract

In this paper, the structure and movement of sea moon jellyfish were analyzed. For the purpose of better synthesis, a novel bionic actuator was designed using SMA, and its mathematical modeling and simulation were carried out. On this basis, a new bionic jellyfish AUV was designed, and the fluid-structure coupling simulation of the model was carried out.
