DANIEL J. EPSTEIN DEPARTMENT OF INDUSTRIAL AND SYSTEMS ENGINEERING ISE 650 SEMINAR "Low-order Models of Fish Swimming"Dr. Eva KansoAssistant Professor, USC Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering DepartmentABSTRACT: We consider the motion of solid bodies in a perfect fluid. The main motivation is to study the effect of the hydrodynamic coupling on the motion of the submerged solids and gain insight into the role of this coupling in aquatic locomotion.WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 12, 2007, KAPRIELIAN HALL (KAP) 158, 3:30-4:30 PMBIO: Eva Kanso is an assistant professor of Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering at USC. Before joining USC in Fall 2005, she held a two-year postdoctoral position at Caltech. She received her Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of California, Berkeley in 2003. While at Berkeley, she also earned masters degrees in Mechanical Engineering (1999) and in Mathematics (2002).
