Abstract:
A robotic eel may comprise a plurality of torque reaction engines, an inertial mass, and a fin. Each of the plurality of torque reaction engines oscillates an inertial mass about an axis, producing a torque reaction on and oscillation of an external shaft. Oscillation of the external shaft bends a beam of the robotic eel. Bending the beam of the robotic eel produces at least one of a traveling or a standing wave in the beam. The traveling wave may be communicated to a second torque reaction of the plurality of torque reaction engines and to the fin, producing thrust.

Claim (Index 8):
The robotic eel of  claim 5 , wherein the first and second external shaft rotational directions have an oscillation phase, and wherein each of the plurality of TREs is controlled by the controller according to an oscillation frequency and an oscillation amplitude.
