This grant is for the continuation and new development of research              activities in the general areas of biophysical fluid mechanics and              nonlinear waves.  This theoretical, numerical and experimental work             covers two major areas.  One is centered about organism propulsion that         ranges from flagellar and ciliary locomotion of protozoans and bacteria         in the low-Reynolds-number category to the swimming of fish and flight          of birds and insects in the high-Reynolds-number regime.  The other             major interest is concerned with nonlinear wave phenomena in general.           In the latter class, emphasis has been put on (1) extending                     unidirectional propagation of waves (like those modeled by the KdV              equation) to 2- or 3-dimensions, and (2) including external forcing             disturbances.  These extensions actually originated from our previous           research on tsunami generation and the terminal effects on coastal              waters.
