This volume developed from a Workshop on Natural Locomotion in
Fluids and on Surfaces: Swimming, Flying, and Sliding which was
held at the Institute for Mathematics and its Applications (IMA) at
the University of Minnesota, from June 1-5, 2010. The subject
matter ranged widely from observational data to theoretical
mechanics, and reflected the broad scope of the workshop. In both
the prepared presentations and in the informal discussions, the
workshop engaged exchanges across disciplines and invited a lively
interaction between modelers and observers. The articles in this
volume were invited and fully refereed. They provide a
representative if necessarily incomplete account of the field of
natural locomotion during a period of rapid growth and expansion.
The papers presented at the workshop, and the contributions to the
present volume, can be roughly divided into those pertaining to
swimming on the scale of marine organisms, swimming of
microorganisms at low Reynolds numbers, animal flight, and sliding
and other related examples of locomotion.
