Stable flotation

Many engineering constructions and living organisms need the ability to self-right spontaneously. Earlier research by our group uncovered that some tortoise species have shell shapes that respond to this requirement. The proposed aims to understand the stability and various stabilizing tricks of floating plants. The work includes simple experiments, constructing geometric models, and computer-assisted calculations
