300			_app39-45
520			_aThe present study depicts the tail fin design, realisation, and propulsion performance of the biomimetic robofish prototype utilising the carangiform motion for efficient two-dimensional (2D) propulsion. Lighthill’s 2D waving plate theory and MATLAB simulations are used to optimise the thrust by varying link and joint configurations. The two-link design achieves a speed of one knot in forward and reverse using a 12 V, 7 Ah battery and servo motor with pulse-width modulation. The robofish is onboard programmed with a timed sequence actuation for forward and downward manoeuvring. An experimental validation in the test tank confirms its performance, showing its potential for advancing bio-inspired underwater propulsion systems.
