Aquatic systems are highly interconnected, which allow fish to traverse long distances, to dive through a water column, and, for some species, to move between fresh and saltwater environments. There is critical and urgent need for long-life unremitting fish monitoring technologies that can help with understanding fish behavior, selecting offshore wind farm sites, operating hydroelectric power plants, and assessing environmental impacts of marine hydrokinetic energy systems. The total market value of global telemetry including fish telemetry tags is estimated to reach $243 billion by 2020. Current fish telemetry tags are constrained by the limited lifetime of batteries, and periodic battery replacements are expensive and harmful to the fish. Another challenge is how to attach these tags to a fish with minimum impact on its normal life. Implanting a tag inside a fish body constitutes a complicated surgery process with the risk of impeding the fish life, and the mechanical clamping to the fin may negatively affect the fish motions. Therefore, this proposal aims at investigating a self-powered strategy and a bio- inspired attachment method for fish telemetry tags through energy harvesting from the surrounding fluid and fish maneuvering.The goals of this GOALI project are to design and validate a novel bio-inspired attachment with a minimal influence on fish life and mobility and a bio-inspired broadband energy harvester to achieve a self-powered fish telemetry tag. The proposed bio-inspired fish tag consists of a bio-inspired bi-stable energy harvester, a bio-inspired sucking disc, an acoustic transmitter, and an integrated circuit board that contains both the transmission circuit, sensors, and the energy-harvesting management circuit. Particularly, the principle behind the Venus flytrap will be fully understood to investigate the snap-through dynamics of the proposed bi-stable galloping piezoelectric harvester subjected to the combined excitations from fish maneuver and fluid flow. The remora-shark "symbiotic relationship" will be studied and used to guide the design of the bio-inspired sucking pad with stiff metal-based teeny spikes (in mimic the lamellar spinules) to attach the harvester on the fish. The specific work scope includes (1) a bio-inspired design of an attachment mechanism and a self-power sensing and communication system, (2) modeling of the fluid-structure-piezoelectric interaction, (3) the bio-inspired dynamics of the bi-stable piezoelectric energy harvester under complex excitations, and (4) experimental validation on robotic fish, live fish, and on-site demonstrations to investigate the performance and the influence of harvester on the fish life and mobility. The research is integrated with an educational and outreach plan, including course development, undergraduate research, K-12 students and teachers, and opportunities for minorities and women. The active collaboration between the two universities and industry will guide fundamental research to solve a critical industry need and enable wide dissemination and accelerated implementation of developed knowledge with immediate industry impacts.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

水生系统是高度相互联系的，可以使鱼穿越长距离，通过水柱潜水，对于某些物种，可以在新鲜和盐水环境之间移动。对于可以帮助理解鱼类行为，选择海上风电场，操作水力发电厂以及评估海洋水力学能源系统的环境影响的长期不持续的鱼类监测技术迫切需要迫切需要。到2020年，包括鱼遥测标签在内的全球遥测的总市场价值估计将达到2430亿美元。当前的鱼类遥测标签受电池寿命有限的限制，定期更换电池昂贵且对鱼有害。另一个挑战是如何将这些标签附加到对其正常寿命最小影响的鱼上。将标签植入鱼体内，构成了一个复杂的手术过程，风险阻碍了鱼类的生命，而机械夹鳍的机械夹子可能会对鱼运动产生负面影响。 Therefore, this proposal aims at investigating a self-powered strategy and a bio- inspired attachment method for fish telemetry tags through energy harvesting from the surrounding fluid and fish maneuvering.The goals of this GOALI project are to design and validate a novel bio-inspired attachment with a minimal influence on fish life and mobility and a bio-inspired broadband energy harvester to achieve a self-powered fish telemetry tag.拟议的生物启发的鱼标签由生物启发的双稳定能量收割机，一个由生物启发的吮吸盘，一个声发射器和一个集成电路板组成，其中既包含传输电路，传感器和能量 - 收获的管理电路。 尤其是，将充分理解金星蝇带背后的原理，以研究拟议的双稳定疾驰的压电收割机的快速动力学，并受到FISH机动和流体流的综合激发。 Remora-shark的“共生关系”将进行研究，并用于指导以僵硬的金属基青少年尖峰（在模仿层状薄膜中）将生物启发的吮吸垫的设计固定在鱼上。 The specific work scope includes (1) a bio-inspired design of an attachment mechanism and a self-power sensing and communication system, (2) modeling of the fluid-structure-piezoelectric interaction, (3) the bio-inspired dynamics of the bi-stable piezoelectric energy harvester under complex excitations, and (4) experimental validation on robotic fish, live fish, and on-site demonstrations to investigate the performance and the influence of收割鱼类的生命和流动性。这项研究与教育和推广计划融为一体，包括课程发展，本科研究，K-12学生和老师以及少数民族和妇女的机会。两所大学与行业之间的积极合作将指导基础研究，以解决关键的行业需求，并能够通过立即产生影响，从而广泛的传播和加速实施已发达的知识。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是值得通过基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛的影响来通过评估来获得支持的。
