About

Soft-bodied organism biomechanics is the academic field investigating the mechanical principles governing the structure, function, material properties, and locomotion of organisms lacking rigid skeletal frameworks. This research explores how these mechanical factors contribute to organismal performance, ecological interaction, and evolutionary adaptation in diverse taxa such as worms, jellyfish, and cephalopods.
