Abstract

A periodical cycle of body deformation is a common strategy for locomotion (see, for instance, birds, fishes, humans). The aim of this paper is to establish that the autopropulsion of deformable objects is optimally achieved using periodic strategies of body deformations. This property is proved for a simple model using an optimal control theory framework.
