Abstract
Fast-starts are quick, high-energy swimming bursts starting either from repose or imposed upon periods of steady swimming (Domenici and Blake in J Exp Biol 200:1165–1178 (1997) [1]). Classified as unsteady motions, fast-starts are commonly executed by fish propelled by BCF, i.e., BCF swimmers, which are central to understanding the dynamics of fish predator-prey interactions. Classified as unsteady motions, fast-starts are commonly executed by fish propelled by BCF, i.e., BCF swimmers, which are central to understanding the dynamics of fish predator-prey interactions. Generally, fast-starts are categorized into C- or S-starts in reference to the initial body shape adopted by the fish with C-starts being used for escape responses and S-starts for prey capture (Webb in J Exp Biol 74:211–226 (1978) [2]).
